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)

Got the new fork put on today, I think I like it. I would post in 'what don't you like' thread, but its too stock, soon enough you will all be able to rip on it.

thank, guys. i spent an hour yesterday de-badging the bars and stem.
i set it up tubeless right off the bat and added the pedals.....i had them laying around and i know they don't match the red accents, but whatever...they'll work for now.
i'd prefer some black ones, so i've got these up for sale locally.

here's what it looks like bone stock....i think it cleaned up well.

Frame is alloy....fork is carbon w/ tapered carbon steerer.
ENVE is redesigning their riser bar and will be released in late April or May I believe.....I'm going to wait until its available and do ENVE bars, stem and seatpost.
Weighs in at 22lb now.....goal is <20

Excuse the serial# sticker and safety sticker on the fork!
They're gone now!

The day I picked it up,the post/Saddle were replaced before i even made it home.....



How it sat this morning befor UPS arrived..



How it sits now with new bars,grips,levers,cables,cog,chain,half link,crank bolts,light set,skewers,saddle,post,pedals....


I still have to trim my bars,but il tell you i had no idea how good it would feel with risers.feels like a whole new bike.
