The first pic is Kevin Schwantz chasing Wayne Rainey......and wayne is airborn in a chicane, so I cut him some slack.
The third pic was not bad either.

I still act like a 15 year old boy when I see an nice bicycle or a sanitary racing motorcycle too. I have an especially erotic passion for beautiful safety wire art.

Honestly, that's probably just a model for the ad, and NOT a mechanic. Cinelli Gear/Park Tool plain sight. But who knows, maybe I'm wrong.

Let's get back on track here - criticizing this "fixie" blog.
First beef - it seems to be a blog about a bunch of random crap, not just fixed gear bikes.
Beef Jr - "fixie"
Beef III - it's making all of us snarky jerks snipe at each other instead of the OP.

If you really want to get technical, those are bladed spokes, which need to be held to prevent twisting when the nipple is turned. Oops, did I say "nipple" ?
