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)

Then again, there was the late night when a scruffy lookin' guy and girl came in and bought nothing but an enema.

Your bike makes you look like a classy SOB, I hope you ride around in a top hat. (On top of a helmet, of course)

I had a vintage Schwinn that I converted for a flip, I removed the headbadge and slapped it on my Maddy.

There is a guy on ebay that sells perfect repop headbadges for $9.00, which is
cheaper and looks better than a vintage one, slap some SuperGoop on it and its good to go-
I also have a sparkle blue seat on mine, a '90s Schwinn Stinger BMX seat-
Much cooler and comfy than the Ponza Ass-Hatchet, and only 25 bucks.
