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)

Nice bike man, looks sweeeet. That is a nice frameset.

These would look totally out of place on your build but I couldn't keep my mouth shut because they're too damn classy

Nice looking bike & frame. How did you like the chain tensioner bolt(s) when putting that part of the bike together and adjusting it ?
