Too lazy to check, do the Wing pros have the same shallow drop as the Omegas?

Yeah man, they look a lot better. Plus they're lighter by like 30ish grams. Not that it really makes a big difference, but still!

Should I go clipless+Fixed all in one go? I don't like the notion of having to fumble into straps if I'm going to switch to fixed, but should I leave some time to get used to fixed before I throw my clipless pedals on?

If you're used to riding clipless with your current system, then you probably won't have too many problems. However, it all depends on your comfort level. The benefit of clips and straps is that you can sort of feel for the bike without kicking/clipping in and there is little consequence for whatever happens.

I had clipless on my roadie, but it has been a while since I was on it. I do have a set of pedals with some MKS cages and crappy straps on them that I can throw on. Right now it's the Twisted/Retrogression pedal setup.

If I was you, I'd probably stay with a clips/straps setup or twisted/retrogression. Riding clipless fixed is fun but for my first experience I don't think I would have liked the idea of clipless.

Thanks I'll give it a try. Probably will do a few short tester/feeler rides before I go fixed on my commute in. Haha

Should I get a traitor Luggernaut 3 speed or get a Trek earl and add a 3 speed? (will it even fit??!!) Money is an object, but credit is a concept...

I'd go for the Earl but I would get the Luggernaut if you want a 3-speed that badly.

Should I take the green off of my bike, and replace it with a black Deep-V (or just get Mavic OP's), and black tape, or leave the green?

Your bike is one of the few I've seen where the bright green actually looks good. Keep it unless you're getting bored of it.

+1. Your bike is very original and I happen to like it a lot. If you are in need of change then Black Derp V's would be cool.

Should I buy a shimano 600 crankset (170 arms) with a 53 tooth chain ring and another 39 tooth chain ring for $20 or less? Even thought it is slightly to big for me?

Not sure but it's pinarello compatible.... I hope so.

A s80 in the rear and bora ultra 2 up front does look good thorugh... not to mention I can always run s80's front/ back... but then again due a nice turn of events my old orca is w/o wheels.

It's more of a cosmetic/ aesthetics move really...
