Fixed gears and single speed were my gateway into more serious cycling. So I say bring all the porn of all kinds.

back in the day, because of the way that British Cycling was organized (very hush hush, no mass start races, only ITTs), framebuilders weren't allowed to label their bikes and so had to add distinguishing characteristics - see, for example, Hetchins' curvy tubes. maybe that is why that bike is so wack.

good luck. I think it may take a bit more than $61, though.

so, the point is, while it's always awesome to get in the first snarky know-it-all comment, if you don't add the appropriate amount of vagueness/"unless"-factor in your post, then somebody else could show you up in a subsequent post.
