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)

Posted a really crappy picture a long time ago, probably on page 40 or 50 something, but since then I have gotten new wheels. Also, if anyone remembers, my seat post was backwards, I finally turned it round!
Also, sorry that the front and back of wheels are cut off, I had to take it from like 6 feet away.

Speaking of pics, where is your bike again?
Here are two of mine:

Hey, what kind of TT brake lever is that on the second bike? I've been looking for one in silver but most are all black.

It was a nashbar brake lever. Picked a pair off ebay while back. does the job.

As for the WTB tires on the San Jose, they are okay. I think sheldon said it right, not really gnarly enough for the trails, and not smooth enough for the street. i usually just use them for fall/winter, and go skinnier for the summer (with a smaller gear, too).

Thanks for the compliments. Building up a purple kilo frame set soon. may steal the pink aeroheads until i can front something different. plus, it should look hot.

This bike is sweet. At first I thought it said "change" and I started shaking my head, then I read "charge".

"charge" or "change" so what...

they are in aussieland and I don't think that they'd have any US political leanings.

but then again, it could be read environmentaly too.

however, if that was was not your point, I do apologize.

I was shaking my head at first because I thought "change" looked dumb in general. Had nothing to do with politics.

Oh damn is that a Wald rack? I was just messing around in photoshop trying to see what my bike would look like with one on. What kind is yours? do you like it?

Yup, its a Wald.

Only took the bike out for a few miles, because I just built the bike up today, but Im diggin the basket. I was still able to weave between cars (without anything in the basket.) Seems sturdy and hasnt messed with my steering yet.

Only thing I changed was the screws. Had to get longer ones, because the clamp area for the bars, is suuuuper thin.
