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)

I spent about a decade stuck in Idaho, so I'm going to have to nominate the Idaho langster:

Three frames, no wheels.

You just put them up on cinderblocks in you front yard and look at them from the porch.

That would be good and clean with a double meaning.

If I would do a bmore one, I would go more with the the hooker/crack vile/hypodermic needle theme. Hook Up style sticker headbadge of one of the city's hookers, small crack viles stickers on deep V's and the "City that Breeds" on the downtube. Kinda of a play on the words for the sayings you see on all the park benches. Giant hypodermic needles on the fork blades or chainstays.

Although bodymore would work too on the DT.

I can't believe I am even bothering to type a response. See what unemployment does to you???

Anyway...

Specialized Langster Pittsbugh Edition. Fabricated from left over steel from our abandonded steel mills. The headbage is an actual 'Arn City label and Pittsburgh is spelled Pixburgh.

I'd get a Detroit Langster. Detroit, like riding fixed, is not as dangerous as you think/have heard.

Hmm, maybe a leathery wrinkly tan Florida Langster.

The Amsterdam langster would be a good color combo. Black and Red with XXX (which I didn't realize was their city symbol and just thought it was for pr0n)
