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)

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

Fat Frank also makes 29x2 tires, I was thinking of getting a 29er from Bikes Direct and throwing them on...

can u even go fast on a bike like that? (with 26" tires?) I commute 10 miles a day on 700c so would a bike like this feel like a turtle??

Actually, it isn't like a unicycle. It has gearing, unless you are referencing a geared unicycle...
