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'm almost positive this picture was taken by his son's lame ass friend who just dropped by and jizzed on the garage floor upon coming up on these 2 bikes.

All this effort, and a simple recumbent will be more aerodynamic still (due to the position of the cyclist).


EDIT: I see now that LóFarkas already addressed this issue, from a slightly different angle.

Probably true since both are not UCI raceable.

Most likely this bike is a designer's wet dream but it's possible this was an attempt at building a record attempt bike (I kind of doubt it since it is almost definitely not UCI reg.) in which case it has to be an upright bike.
