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)

Sidi Genius 5 Pro Mega Carbon

And after my black tape worked out so well, a great deal on some white Fizik Microtex tape.

Total damage: about $210 CAD. NOT BAD!

Scrodzilla, if you are going to make a tarck build, atleast spraybomb the wheel one of these colours before putting that tire on... or after.

I intend on using it like that. Threads, headset, seatpost, and pedals. Niagara Cycle Works shipped it few days ago, so I should be getting it either tomorrow or Tuesday..

I'll repost once I get em and tell you how it goes.
