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)

ground up designs

never thought i would see it go but its time. its one of those bikes i said i would never sell but i have since stopped racing track and it has become a sad dust collector. anyone looking to buy a 55 cm race bike let me know! its not your run of the mill langster so i figure you folks on here might appreciate it.

holy **** indeed. If I were you, I'd keep that beauty; maybe some day down the line you'll look back and say damn that's one badass bike. And you'll go and ride track again when your 70 years old. And by that time everyone will think you're lame for not riding a hover bike. But you'll bring up the past start a new fad. Make a successful magazine praising the fad and die happy and rich.

i don't really have much interest in riding track bikes anymore. most of my time is spent on my mountain bike these days. plus i am looking to buy a house and need the cash. eric is not making a lot of track bikes these days and he is not doing much in the way of fully brazed frames either. this is a pretty rare frame.

It's hot. If it were my size and could afford it, I'd be all about it.
