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)

Hmm I never thought of "Poosh" actually that has a sorta Euro vibe that I like. Now here's another one:

Ciocc. How the **** do you pronounce that? Is it just me or does it sound like the kind of word that is inappropriate to say to your boss?

There is an MP3 of an (assumedly) Euro dude pronouncing all of those makers floating around... even campagnolo and cinelli.

Ciöcc is pronounced sort of like "Choach", but with a distinct sound to the "oa" pairing. Keep the "oa" a bit softer; not harsh as in the word "coach". Think of the Italian word "Ciao" not as an American pronounces it (Chow!!!), but as it is said in its proper tongue. I really wish I could type it phonetically, but I can't. If you at least can say "Choach" without sounding too American then you're on the right track.

Anyway, I'd like to get a Ciöcc just to hear other riders botch the pronunciation.
