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)

and if you guys are wondering about those bikes in the back, my dad went semi-pro for a while but doesn't have that kind of time anymore but he still rides frequently just not the whole training hard aspect. and that's not even half of his equipment.

the stem was something i had laying the in the garage already. I was just trying to keep it a budget build. it kind of compensates for the pursuits not having as much of a drop as I wanted

I understand there's a thread for that but I wanted to showcase it individually

If everyone "showcased their bikes individually", this forum would be quite ridiculous.

Please post in the existing Kilo thread.
