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 love vigs, especially in that color way. The only thing I don't like about that bike is the saddle.

Self-made out of different devices. Since there is no bottle screws.

Is it the ugliest bottle holder and position (after on-handlebar)?



It is pretty rigid... but how about beauty?

I'd say the ugliest is that saddle built to hold a water bottle like that.

Your solution is not bad. Plus, who cares how the water mount looks when you're riding it?

I'll take it to the next step - I'd rather do not drink.

According to last 3 pictures this is what people do...

That's a very interesting frame you have there. Reminds me of that raw custom one off that was posted in the porn awhile back....

Ooh an excuse to post my bf's bmx bike. Took some pics of it the other day.



I need to take some photos of my bike but I am always changing little things on it and never quite feeling like it is "complete"... blah.
