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)

Snow today, and all next week. Should have ordered tires before the new rims. Oh well.

Another bar/stem swap. I wanted to go with a 31.8 stem, since I already had a few, plus some cross levers. So I got the Origin 8 Pro Pulsion base bar. It's definitely nicer than the Profile. While I can't really say I notice a difference in stiffness, the bar itself is shorter, and seems to fit me better. Does anyone else running this bar find that the short reach results in a better fit?
