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)

That was my thought though the chain is a bit slack to be playing polo on a fixed gear, particularly brakeless. Gearing's a bit high too, but there's nothing to say it has to be a good polo bike.

I am guessing that the reason it is here is because it's hella expensive for a street bike. (it was pointed out to me that the bullhorns give away the fact that it isn't for the track).

I hated "my bad" for the longest time, but just grew to accept it. I still refuse to say it.

Sorry if repost/member's bike. Found on /r/fixedgearbicycle, which usually houses some fun stuff.

I have mixed feelings about this one.

There are some seriously ridiculous bikes on this thread, but this one makes me giggle. Thank you.
