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 don't understand how he's supposed to pedal, the pedals are almost at his knee level in that rolling wedgie.

Oh gosh, I should've bought one of those.

I know not everyone is going to agree, and I can see why they found their way into this thread, but I think they look pretty cool.

Would've been extra cool if you could send in a pair of jeans to get them made into a saddle imo

Don't forget that FSA carbon crank. Minus the aero bars, I might ride that, just for fun.

Beach cruisers with slicks makes sense. The bars, no.
