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)

Those must be the premium zip-ties that everyone's been talking about.

I wonder if they're UCI approved....

Well, they appear to be grade 8 zip ties, so they are torqued to standard.
