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)

I like yours better to be honest.... sure it may be absurd that I would like a kilo more than a master built kinfolk but that's my opinion and tastes.

The chrome fork in cc's creates a kind of balance of color; while the kinfolk is just too much of that serpent green... in addition cc's fork is so much more classier than the stock kilo fork.
