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)

Alrighty, I ordered some in the more 'interesting' colours. E-Mail me if you want some, only selling in pairs, and they ain't particularly cheap so no whingers.

I have multiple students here in Korea, cute little girls, who come in every day with necklaces with swastika pendants. Unfortunately tainted by the Nazis, its a symbol with a hell of a lot more history and significance than most people realize or care to notice.

I figured for all the ruckus about this thread there would at least be swastika tread tires or something.
