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'll have to agree with this. i'm one a a few that don't go nuts over NJS or NJS inspired builds. i can appreciate a nice frame and a nice bike, but to me they're nothing to write home about.

This thread makes me want:

a) A Yamaguchi frameset
b) A Brooks Swallow
c) a classy box-rim wheelset with tan or white sidewall tires.

I'd call it practical and very comfortable looking... and despite the massive amount of rubber under those bikes the FF rolls out pretty fast... and when you can go through stuff you'd otherwise be dodging that saves time and energy.

i dunno man. i posted that first bike with the fat franks because im in love with those tires on that build, and since ive been really really wanting to put together some sort of similar build. the trick is a frame that can take 26 x 2.35 tires.

anyone have any advise on acquiring a cheap frame that will take these tires?
