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?

Bikes: windsor hour, fly bikes pantera, custom lowrider, hoffman ep flatland bike, eastern hercules.

I just called the affinity shop 4 days ago. 400 for frame and fork plus shipping (which i have heard can be expensive from the shop). Only one large left till the new shipment in march. New shipment will have 1" threaded steer tubes as an option along with regular 1" threadless. Some woman was riding a KHS aero track here in philly but i couldnt catch her in the dumb car i was driving so i couldnt offer to buy it from her. Bummer. Then it was locked up outside of reading terminal and i waited an hour before i split. Should have left a note. Good luck finding a KHS, but affinity is a nice option.

I can't find geo/sizing information online for those frames. Anyone have a link?

Thought I might bump this as I just finished my Affinity build. Bad pic, but all I have is the little camera on my macbook sooo:




EDIT: PS - It's not a left-side drive, the camera reversed the image. Told you it was a bad pic.

Haha it's actually a right side drive, but the camera on my macbook (i know, i should probably get my digital fixed) for some reason reverses the image.
