Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

This is the color scheme I originally wanted. Glad I didn't go that route, but this does look hot. Still undecided whether mine is a BJ or not.

The good news is: if he ever comes across a different frame he wants to build up, he has all the parts.

My 52mm KHS Flite 100

Coming: Chris King headset, H+Sons Rear Rim [need something bomb proof - rear 510 wont stay true], Sugino Messenger chainwheel

Otherwise, the bike's a dream. Love it.
