Hey,
My first "real" fixie. I waited nearly a year for this.
I have two other steering sets; one with a drop and the other with a riser. I am using one with a drop right now. But I like the quarky look of this boomerang-like bar.

sensative lot here. just thought it would have been the nice thing to do, like when you hold the door open for someone when you're goin into starbucks? or do you guys close it right behind you? Sorry, shouldn't have used the word moron, but was being sarcastic...*sigh*

Couple of updates...
Then...
Now...
Purchased 3 different sets of bars except drops so I can switch it up.
I am having a blast riding my bike. Just need to build one for my son now. New brake in the mail.

I know the feeling, I've always had a soft spot for innerlight.

Got bored so I did a shoot today. Yeah I know, two brake levers and only one brake. Once I get a crosslever I'll re-wrap the bars and pull the bar end levers.

That's a beautiful chain-line. I think mine is few mm off.

Add a twist to the strap in the pedal cage.... this will keep it from shifting back and forth when tightening/loosening

My Felicia. Been riding since September, but that's irrelevant. Tips would be appreciated.

My tip would be to take more pics of the bike instead of the stickers
