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)

mmm.. vanilla..

It is my goal to one day own a Vanilla bicycle. Maybe take out an extra student loan to cover it...

I love Vanilla's lugged frames. Probably the best looking dropouts, in my opinion.

Definitely on my dream list for a CX frame.

I can appreciate the work in those lugs. The earth/sky one is cool. But a tea cup? C'mon, I didn't know Laura Ashley made bike frames...

Bikes: I built the Bianchi track bike back up today.

Both are nice, but I like the Vanilla better - it's not too ornamental, seems like just the right level of ornamentation.

For some reason the curves remind me of swords? Dunno why though...
