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)

As for the front... are you looking to be seen on urban streets, or are you trying to light up the countryside?

probably somewhere inbetween lol

Bikes: good ones.

I still say go SLR. At first, I thought the stock saddle that came on my bike was terribly uncomfortable because I didn't think it had enough padding. After a while, I realized that it was the padding that was making it worse for me. I got used to riding on a road saddle after a couple of weeks, and realized I wanted something completely different than what I would want in BMX type saddle.

I've preferred my saddles to be supportive, to flex, and to be comfortable in multiple positions, while being minimalist in padding. The SLR has so far been perfect for me.

For a rear light, PDW radbot. The red reflector on the radbot may be useful during the day.
