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?

BME 29er?

I found this on my local CL- was intrigued, and Googled it, but I can't find anything on this brand of bike. BF also has nothing in the searches about this brand. Is it a typo or something?
What do you think of it?

That bike is a SE Racing B.M. Flyer,I had the same bike.It is aluminum with an aluminum fork,sealed Formula disc hubs,Tektro V brakes and levers,Alex rims,Kenda tires,an integated headset, and a bmx 3 piece cro-mo crank.

Here is what mine looked like,Altough the only things that were not stock on mine was the chain tensioner(it originaly came with a Acera X deralluier as the tensioner) and the saddle.





I dont know if the seller actually knows what he has or not,but beware.It looks like it was peiced together with random parts. $250.00 is a little steep seeing as how used it appears and is not complete. Also the bike retailed for $550.00 new in 2006.

The seller does offer to throw in both a single speed spacer kit and a cassette. So technically this is single speed related. Worked out though, seems he got his question answered.
