At that angle, it looks very one dimensional. Also, a dirty ***** for being posted naked like that in bed. :)

"Custom Build" is really over used these days. People think it adds value to something, when it means, basically, you are trying to sell me a bike that you built, just for you. I mean, it's a cool bike. And good parts, etc etc, but drop the "custom", cause no one gives a rat's ass. Besides, how "custom" can it be, if its built up with parts that most everybody would put on it anyway? $1800? get the **** outta here.

Right, I saw that. Is this bike worth that? I have no idea because I am not into that style of fixed gear.

Nor I, but if you Google "EAI Toyo Godzilla", the frameset alone appears to go for over $700 from most retailers.

That sure is an expensive one. $100 chain, $100 headset, sugino 75 cranks... the list goes on.

I know they're cheap, but has anyone used these? thinking about buying a pair. I'm currently riding on single straps.

No reserve and still reasonable bidding (which I don't expect to last). Tall-ass bike, doe.

Don't know much about these, but I bet it's rare as hell, and probably a decent bike too (at least).

you'd think for $900 they would've cleaned it up or something. The cog/axle/chain is all furry.

It sold via BIN (for its asking price) on the same day that it was listed, so apparently someone agreed.

Well it certainly isn't a factory build.
