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)

many thanks! at first i built it up with a cinelli
track stem and bullhorns, but for the street and
with such a drop, risers (in my opinion) fit better
practically and optically.

The newly re-vamped IRO Angus urban beast/fixed gear trail bike. Pushing 49x20, may gear down if I get more into the off-road stuff. ****-tons of fun. Bontrager Jones CX 700x30/32 tires fit perfectly.

That's totally the jam. Definitely my future setup when
the BFSSFG IRO frames show up, only with drop bars and
clipless pedals.
