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)

love the stem/bar setup on that, rooney. tires look swell, also. maybe a black 75 chainring, but keep the DA cranks?

isn't it funny how skid pads started being made just around the time that skid comps went out of favor? barspins for the win. or something.

Did anyone else notice the near perfect celeste wall?

I guess that guy went all out, got a wall to match his bike, or maybe the other way around?

It's going to be a circus when they do get them. I'll let you know what I find out this week. I think I'm going to contact Garret again even thought Glory is the worst bike shop in the world.

Let me reiterate:

GLORY IS THE WORST.
