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)

I was thinking the same exact thing. Who the hell carries around a pickle jar?

I like all of what is going on there. Weird brake levers, mini-v's, red crank, sensible wheels, and badge-of-honor stains.
