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)

tires on that pake look good. I might need to know what kind of tires those are, they would look good on my plug.

Major updates in the saddle department. Replaced the azzhatchet Origin 8 on the naranja with a Fyxation Curve and the Tioga Spyder TT on the Leader with a Charge Knife. Both are massive improvements in the comfort department.
