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)

I'm still trying to figure out what's going on with that brake cable. It looks like braided cable, like they use on high pressure lines.

Looks more like it's ribbed for her pleasure, to me.

Velo Orange, and others, have braided housing, though.

This thread needs an overhaul. Lots of stupid in here, but not a whole lot of jackass.

For the record, THIS is jackass:





Drillium aerospokes would be jackass. But these blingy bikes aren't really jackass- they might be stupid, but they're not jackass.
