It is just like I asked for. Nope, I don't need a smaller frame, I'm a tall girl. All is well. I would not change a thing for me, right now.

now i know this isn't the 'what you hate about my blah blah' thread,
but you need some foot retention for your ride. clips &straps or clipless pedals, cmon now.
if you can hold your own on a fixed, then i'm sure you'll be fine brakeless.
reno is really chill.

That looks like a bike, built to be ridden.
How are the Carbon Deltaforces? I ordered a set of the Aluminium deltaforces, can you ride on the flats? They don't look very grippable.

Except add foot retention i hope? Seriously, without it you're missing half the fun of the fixed gear because you'll be able to ride a lot less agressively and with less confidence. Especially if you're brakeless. Anyway, when you bust your head open we'll talk again. Or not.

Is it weird that the picture of your bike w/ its chain sagging on the ground depresses me? haha
