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)

Are those available from somewhere in the states? My brother was at one point qualified for the PBA Tour(he then had an accident with a machete and nearly cut his right thumb completely off) and would love those.

I haven't actually looked at the pages that it gives, but a quick google search brings up places you can order them.

The gold and green looks really good together. Those Merciers are the prettiest $350 someone can spend in my opinion heh.

Yeah, I love that green. What's the word on the decals on those? Are they under the clearcoat?

I want to get either the Windsor or Mercier as a fun/beater/rainbike this summer I think..

They are under the clearcoat. Well, my friend's 2006 model had them under the clearcoat. Not sure about 2007... but I would expect whoever makes the bike would keep them the same.

But yea, I really want a black Mercier to build up so I can beat the living crap out of it too. No doubt it would hold up.

So fresh and clean, I love it. I played around with the idea of getting gold spokes for my fixed wheelset, what have you got here? They look pretty thick. Is that an old Shimano 600 stem? Nice.
