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)

Track drops and hoods look odd, but hey, whatever works.

I remember browsing a site where they do profession reupholster of saddles but can't find the site...

Those aren't track drops, they're Nitto Noodles (which I think are road bars). They probably really deep because the frame is so small (49 cm).

Haha, no worries, I'm a pretty tiny dude. 5'5".

I can't tell if White + Silver + Brown would look super awesome or if it would look like I'm trying too hard...

Are those the "bright silver"? They look awesome. You could stand to lose the stickers though.

Do it! I just got one on BikeIsland for $299. They're a steal. I think it will get bright silver veeps eventually.

Yep. Non-original packaging and scuffed bar wrap = $60 off.
