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)

I found this *****ing silver Shimano windbreaker today. I am not sure if I will keep it or not, do you guys think it would sell on eBay? It has Shimano's colours and "Shimano" is written everywhere on it but it says something about tackle on the back, so I guess it is fishing-specific. It is very comfy and looks pretty slick, I might keep it just for fun.

Oh man. You should mail that jacket to the owner of that bike free of charge. In fact, as a matter of principle, I demand it.

I´d wear that. Come to think of it, there´s a fishing store a few blocks away... I think should roll there to troll (sorry! could not resist)

Nice! Those On-One carbon forks ROCK! I really like the White Ind. cranks too!

What Ti bars are those?

btw, did you have any trouble with the rear disc adjustment? My pal has a 1st gen Karate Monkey and he told me it was hard to get the chain tension and caliper adjustment right.

I just added the On One fork, fatter meats (2.55 Weirwolfs), and the Ti bars so I haven't had a ride on it yet, tomorrow hopefully after work.

The ti risers are some cheapies I got of Ebay for $25 shipped. 26" wide Ti Risers on the 'Bay He use to have some 31" wide ones, but I guess he sold out of them.

Yes, discs and the rear facing dropouts are a bit of a PITA on the Monkey. Any time I have to remove the rear wheel I need to readjust the caliper some. That is really the only thing I don't like about the frame.
