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)

Yes, he's back on. I still don't know what I did to make his account function again, but it apparently is working once more.

what was the conclusion of that whole debacle?
I know threads started getting deleted on even mentioning the word Tommasini, but did anything get resolved?

I bought out Tommasini, shut the who operation down and sold off the assets just to put that **** to a rest.

Oh and I'm selling the name to BikesDirect.com soooo Tommasini Kilo TT coming soon, guys! In six weeks! Or four months! We'll see!

The conclusion was that the Gorilla frames are real Tommasini made frames and that BF mods/admins soiled their diapers and did a lot of **** they shouldnt have. donnamb in particular.

I like the fork. Can't see the welds very well, but looks fairly clean (purely aesthetics-
can't "see" weld integrity). Tubing?

Are we all looking for a new Big Ban Day here or what?

Tommasini USA are probably still negotiating with their "legal consultants" about how to get that Swiss Gorilla bikes dude sent to Guantanamo Bay to be waterboarded...
