I hate arguing, but I don't enjoy the hand position on the riser bar setup. The angle is just odd for me. I much more prefer a straight bar with a short stem angle into the head tube. The angle is much more comfortable and everything rides so smoothly. Now Bullhorns are quite amazing! It's like having multiple bars on grab onto; so many different hand positions and angles. I find that most, though hesitant at first, enjoy the bullhorn setup once they try it. Many even prefer it to the straight bar or riser bar positioning.

Don't even get me started on how amazing the mustache bar setup can be. The number of hand positions on the mustache bar is left up to imagination.

Oh and I for got to mention hubs. You can get any old hub any where, and you'll never know where it came from as well. Consider yourself lucky if you ever find a phil woods hub in your wheelset. You gotta pay a pretty penny to purchase that hub, and keep it maintained. But when people see you with your phil hub, damn....no words. Low flange are nice. High flange are exotic looking but crazy. You have keep the high flange in check.
Campy hubs are gorgeous. Pure Italian sex. If you find a Campy hub, you've got a classic sexy hub.
And there's nothing quite like an exotic hub from Asia. They are small, quick, and strong like you wouldn't imagine. They'll hold up for years of abuse and come back every night wanting mo', mo', mo'! Those little asian hubs love skids, trackstands, bullhorns, and any other combination you can dream up.
The final word goes to Formula hubs. They're affordable, nice, and they'll treat you right. Always. These hubs require little to no maintenance. They're faithful. A hub that you'd want to hang on to for a long time. They are the working professional of the track hub world.

When she comes like a red traffic light glaring at you to the sound of tires screeching and muscle cars engines groaning, I squeeze my sphincter and hold a delicate trackstand, no need to pullout of the frame and as the waves subside and it's a a go green signal again, I spin and do my zoomin

Zoomin’ with Janet
Knocked off the planet
Zoomin’ with Joy
I got played like a toy
Zoomin’ with June
Almost made me swoon
Zoomin’ with Stacy
Swinging hips like Count Basie

A fixie is like being on viagra 24/7 no slack baby, no slack!!

Every bike mechanic knows: most problems can be fixed with a bit of lube and a bit of screwing.
