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)

He probably took links out of the chain to get the wheel as far forward in the track ends as he could. You know, for the aero effect.

Nice to see someone can take a joke.
I like it. I'd set that up as a three speed and maybe a coaster brake.
I would destroy that fork.
I'm a pussie.
