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)

In addition - I rotate my tires fairly often so that I have pretty even wear on the front and back tires. When I rotate the tires, I pay ver close attention to the wear on the front tire. I won't put a worn fron tire on the front.
