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)

Are those cranks 175?
I think they're slightly longer than 175, but I'm not sure.

i bet it's a smooth enough ride if you use enough lubrication. i've always been fond of fast women. i bet it increases the pleasure when she's rolling. if she gets loose you can tighten her right back up again.
