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 is a sick ass Denali I love the shimano sticker was still left on.

I am going to get a Denali and run full Super Record EPS V3 on it with Bora Tubular Wheels and Dugast Tubs, just so the Crampandgoslo crowd can really cramp up.

If you do it, you need to use clip pedals and Brooks spring saddle....

Pretty typical FTP. We used to have a thread dedicated to 09 FTPs with lots of monstrosities.

Well, the seatpost is backwards so that doesn't help. Neither does the adjustable stem and the white cranks. OOF.
