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)

Made my mind up.
Yes, I have mended the 930 so it's rideable, but it's only a temp fix.

Hope I like pake.

If the green/black fade is too flashy for you, white or Dirty Nickel gets my vote.

Weren't you going to have it painted? How about getting a new drop out brazed on.

I think it's to the point where I'll be chasing problems nonstop.

I'm going to see how well my repair holds up,
