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)

Is it just me or is this some of the best bicycle photography you have ever seen?

I'd like to know myself. It looks like he had them done professionally.

Agreed. The poster is a great photographer. Lousy floor finisher or carpet layer ' see shots 4 and 5'. Great photographer.

Look at the left pedal/toe clip, it's supporting the bike. It's easy to do with a fixie, haven't tried it on my geared bike yet as it has clipless pedals.

Agreed, I bet it's also easier to do with that rug there too, more traction and whatnots.

There's been a whole run of great looking bikes/photography on fgg recently, that one (#1700), #1731 is also a great job, in my opinion, I'd say #1727 isn't bad if I had more artsy fartsy in me, and #1698 looks good as well.

yeah, and if you look there's a brick or something under the rug. i would guess that clips can't ordinarily reach the ground on their own - or maybe they can, seems that would be pretty nasty for cornering though.

that bike is so so beautiful, i hope i dream about it tonight. someday it will be mine. oh yes, it will be mine.
