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)

It's hard to get a picture where it actually looks gold. My grips are perfectly fine. Creamsicles are delicious.

3 cm is MASSIVE for a loose crank on a spindle. Just saying.... *of course it calls the entire original post into question.
