Fyxation Quiver frameset?
Hey guys, I'm thinking about building up a somewhat unusual freewheel singlespeed, and the Fyxation Quiver frameset is looking like a good option. Can't find much in the way of opinions on it, but someone told me that the idea of that frame (maybe its price given the features?) makes him nervous.
Here's what has me interested in it: Cromoly steel Horizontal dropouts (I'd prefer forward-facing, but whatever) Dropout spacing of 132.5mm Clearance for big tires, without cantilever studs or disc mounts (I'm planning to use drum brakes and 32-35mm tires with full fenders) Removable cable stops and general ease of mounting rack and fenders Price I realize that it's straight-gauge tubing, as opposed to the at least partially double-butted tubing of the Cross Check (which also costs a lot more and has canti studs), but presumably costs are being cut somewhere. What am I missing? For reference, I'm currently riding a Bianchi Volpe (double-butted cromoly) and a Panasonic Sport 500 (straight-gauge hi-ten steel), and I also had a Fuji Royale II (quad-butted "VaLite" vanadium steel) for a while. |

What's "unusual" about a single speed bike with a freewheel? That's the very definition of what a single speed bike is.
