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)

sasha, that shot of the 3rensho kind of gets my heart beating. i mean, the curve of the lug is so smooth and perfect. it's graceful. part of me wishes that bit of rust on the top tip wasn't there, so i could more clearly see that fine, fine point. but part of me appreciates it. like how a facial scar can really accentuate a sassy wink. lovely shot - you got the focus just right.

why does it say freewheel if it's fixed? or is it free with no brakes?

I'm not really feelin' it. I would like it if it had a matching lugged fork and the TT was parallel to the ground and if the FREWHEEL wasn't there. On the plus, I like the fastback.
