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)

This bike confuses me. The Felt Griloc. It's labeled as a fixed gear but has 3 speeds? Either way it looks like a really nice bike for $350. Any advice?

Who ever got this, got a great deal: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI...m=230825804681

I forgot to bid on it, so mad right now. I set my limit at $15 and some guy added $15.50 last night. And I forgot to keep track of it.

I feel like they mention they were used by racers to appeal to the people that think that's cool, but all that does is seriously not make me want them

You should always low-ball on Craigslist, but that seems like a reasonable deal assuming they're really all brand new.

I think we should all call this guy, and tell him what a sweet job he's done making a $100 bike into a $350 bike.

brand new Leader Frame 725 track back on a fixed gear, state bike rims, new tires with low miles.
its a very nice seafoam green in mint conditions. The front tire is 700x23 with a matte black rim, and the back is 700x25 with a white rim. The handle bar are bullhorns with black and white tape.
Stickers are removable.


They're asking 650 for it, you guys think it's a good price? I offered 500, hoping to get it for 550.

I'm more irate about the fizik k1 in that mediocre build.... it appears the owner got the k1 for the slim profile so he can fit the bike with an already slammed seatpost.
