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)

Speaking of the IRS, they were good to me, too. Unfortunately, it's all gotta go right back to the gov't. ($$$ LOANS)

for paint in a spraygun, my friend uses the rustoleum that comes in a regular paint can. he said he had to thin it down a whole lot to get it not to clog up though. The bikes he painted came out great.

[165] - that is amazing. Those pink Phil's would probably have just been overkill on that, although I still say you get some tubular rims drilled for 144 spokes so you can have major bling factor at the track. It won't be heavy, I promise.

I'll give you that. It just seems a shame to have to own that bike just to have a nice place to paint.

Blue chainring is pretty. I'm fantasizing about how that bike would look if it was all blue on chrome. Mmmmm.

Man, that Rossin is amazing. I second the comment on the clearance - looks like you would have to deflate the tire to remove the wheel Not sure about the grips... might look a little better with some keirin grips, IMHO

How do you like those pedals/clips? I've been thinking of picking up a pair of new pedals, and those look pretty cool. I'm wondering if they are a good buy.
