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)

I love tech gear. I really really do.

I saw a bag that had sealed seams a while ago that was made out of a rubber compound of sorts - I want to say patagonia makes it but I know it was somebody else.

I got the smaller Arc'teryx bag with the same roll top as the Sultan. All the zippers are rubber sealed with a little hood for the zip. I think I paid like $50 bucks for it and its practically bombproof. Ultra high tech with all the bells and whistles. I'm not even going to talk about sick their jackets are.

The sultan looks like it'd be tough to haul a set of wheels around with.

It's all about having their factory outlet in town.
