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 just think that's a weird thing to accuse someone of, and an even stranger thing to despise them for.

****ing Brian thinks he's a ****ing pirate! I hate that jerk, man. **** YOU BRIAN!!!!

Seriously, why was it at all necessary to make a post to link to another messageboard displaying a crappy conversion being done by someone who is obviously clueless. We have more than our fair share of that here.

silverfish is a breeding ground for middleschoolers who think posting youtube videos of themselves cross stepping is cool.

why in gods name would you do that to such a cool looking frame?!
That's a decent frame for a cheapo conversion. Chrome and lugs do not a
classic make. Flip through the CV forum and check out some vintage bikes
or go to classicrendezvous.com for the real shiz
