Oh yeah I'll be sure to shout "NI HAO GAO JIAN" if I see anyone on a Paddy Wagon with bullhorns...
Was that snarky? Oh well. Maybe you can be my bike buddy. Cuties only though. |

I like to have long drawn out should-be-in-a-pm conversations in otherwise fun threads too.
On Topic: I think tri-spokes are horrendously ugly and no where near as street-swag-y as aerospokes. |

I helped my friend sell stock Kilo TT wheels for $90, too. That's a lot more than I would have paid for them.
|
Wtf where did my post go? I am trying to sell them for $75. I guess I don't feel as bad now.
|
I get depressed when I look at myself and realize I'm riding a fixed gear conversion with cut off shorts, a cycling cap, a mustache, and a chrome bag..

I may have locked myself out of my house--I'll have to see if the door's unlocked when I get back.
UPDATE: Locked :( |
Sometimes I impulse bid on eBay auctions. I bid on a Concor Supercorsa at a really good price until I realized shipping was ~$20. Ruh roh.

I used to think fixed gears were stupid and a blatant denial of modern technology, and then I rode one.
I like MASH. |
My bike started out as a 10 speed, broke, and I built it up as a fixed gear with the cheapest parts I could find. The total investment, including the bike is less than 200 dollars, and every part is "new" including a fresh powdercoat. Even though so many people on this site have awesome bikes, I have absolutely no desire to upgrade anything on it. Cheap, problem free, and glorious.

having a geared bike is always running through my head. planning on getting something with sram force or rival or even apex one day or another, been looking at the litespeed m1 complete. maybe this summer even.
46/16 gearing feels too high for me in flat alameda. sometimes the only thing in my messengerbag is a lock. i like riding it around. if im out for a while i usually change out of my walkable mtb shoes. as much as i hate to admit njs is nice, but i dont go out of my way for it. i dont usually stop at stopsigns. spin to win. |
I don't think classic steel track bikes are all that great.

I'm slowly becoming a hipster.
