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)

They just need to invent a new sport for that bike. Like a tightly packed dirt velodrome...the types you see in short track sprint car racing.




But smaller with higher banks and harder/more compact dirt. Drop bars and fat tires a-ok.

Not bike porn but certainly cabin porn. Not really sure if it should be here or in the jackass or even the townie thread.

Couldn't get the video to show. You will have to click....

I'd ride it.

I've got a pair of those Cinelli m71 pedals, and was thinking of putting them back on my vintage Paramount P14. In case anyone doesn't know, those were the very first clipless pedals before Look introduced the design that is used today.

Looks like they fetch a fairly pretty penny in case you ever decide to fund another bike addition to the stable

Yeah, well those are NIB which counts for a lot. Mine are used and I no longer have the original packaging, so I have no idea what they'd fetch.

You could probably pump those tires up to full pressure and have NO space !

Great video! Those things behave like a dart flying backwards and the only thing keeping them pointed forwards is tire traction.
