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)

Decent for a cheap beater that I can upgrade a little at a time?

For what it's worth, my only other local options are State Bicycle Co. and I could always order in a Kilo, I guess (which is what I figure most people will tell me to do). But dang... I love those Bianchi wheels.
I would go with a kilo just because that fork is super ugly.

Meh... that's subjective. I don't hate it and forks are cheap if I ever decide to swap it out.

Wabi Cycle 55 cm Lightning Single Speed Bike Jet Black 15 1 Pounds Fixie Fixed | eBay


$800 obo for a complete wabi lightning. Great deal and better if they accept lower. That's about the price as just the frame. Too bad its 55 and not 58. I would have seriously considered it even though I don't want black.

I'm trying to talk a co-worker into buying that. The more I look at though the more I want it.

Trying to decide if this is legit or if I'll get stabbed if I try to go see it: H&M Brick Lane Bike Limited Edition Road Bike Bicycle

Seems like this thread might be the same guy, or the guy it got stolen from: https://www.bikeforums.net/singlespee...sell-here.html

first post here! I'm currently trying to buy a bike off craigslist and the seller says the frame is a leader 722. I'm a bit green at this but I'm sure all leader frames have LEADER printed somewhere right? Again I'm not sure so I'll post screenshots if anyone could tell if its legit I would greatly appreciate it

Found this generic looking aerospoke on ebay, the company Used to make them slightly different before, these look a lot more like aerospokes now.
they only have a front wheel though im sure you could swap out the center and custom make a rear wheel.

type in TMC 700c wheel on ebay to find it. or heres a link for one on a auction bid
