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)

there have been two other threads on this recently (just so you know - i'm not trying to be a jerk here - there's just a lot of opinions and info you could read on the other threads) - search for them and read all about people's opinions on republic.

personally, i would rather spend a little time looking around and find the parts to make a nicer bike then buying something that generic and low end.
