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)

You do know what Joe Paterno and Billy Graham both have in common? They both have the ability to make a whole stadium full of people scream "OHHHH Jesusus"!

All, uh, Jesusness aside, that gold on black is actually really sweet looking, especially that crankset.

That brings a whole new meaning to the term "holy roller".

It looks to be a Tiemeyer. Probably bought from someone who got it custom made for TT. The headtube is shaped like that for better aerodynamics I believe as it is really only seen on TT frames.

The aforementioned frame is definitely not a Tiemeyer. That BB drop would cause pedalstrike even on Penrose's Velodrome. Its a cheap recreation.
