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)

Today I received a Zefal HPX #2 frame pump for my Diamondback fixed-gear. The HPX #3 that was shared with the Bianchi Eros was kind of a tight fit on the Diamondback, and I was concerned about eventually bending something. So now each of my most-ridden bikes has its own (Bianchi Sport SX has a #4 .)

actually theres a seam separating and some threads on the palm of the same glove coming undone already after yesterdays 200k, but the other glove is totally fine.

bontrager has a guarantee tho so if i dont/cant fix it with a needle & thread ill just exchange or return

theyre very comfy though, perfect amount of padding and my hands didnt complain once yesterday

I got a fixed gear with a 68x103 bb that i am looking to repalce, I've got a friend who is selling me his bb for cheap that he never used. It's 68x109, will it make a huge difference?

I have been incredibly happy with mine. It is crazy how much stuff it can hold and how light it feels on my back. I think I originally started looking at it because I saw someone posting it in this thread.

Having some fun with the Wabi Classic. Trying out riser bars for cruising around the city. I do need to pick up an 18 tooth fixed cog, any recommendations on a particular one to purchase?
