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)

That is my friend Casey's bike. The bike is completely color schemed except for the yello. The bike is Celeste and Pink. Pink Phil, pink Fizik, Pink paint on the front, Pink oury's (not pictured), etc etc. He didnt ask for the yellow. He took it to Dustin at Cadence and said "Do whatever, just make sure youuse pink" and this is what he got. Hand painted, and rad in person.

sorry, but if that is considered "color scheming", then your
friend casey needs to match the colors which are being
schemed within themselves. the pink/celeste could be great,
but the fact that the pink hues are so terribly off from one
another makes it look like crap.

The pink of the wheel and the pink or the saddle are identical. The hub was the closest he could get...so he sprung for it. He is gonna get a mathcing from Deep-V/Phil soon anyhow.

Beautiful bike. Totally stunning.

Also, those the most useless (albeit, cool looking) fenders I've ever seen.

I was thinking the same thing. Originally I had a whole blue theme going on (blue clips and straps, blue bar tape, etc) and the tires are holdovers. I wanna change them out to either traditional gum walls or gatorskins. Also gonna change the straps to to black as well, along with the paint in the fluted seatpost.

I had a set of full Honjo's on it and like the blue tires, they didn't look right. I sorta like the shorties, I've seen them in a few old path racer photos and british lightweights- always liked how uselessly cool they looked.

yeah, I wanted to get the picture in front of Venom, but some guy was parked right up on it. I suppose I could have just put my bike on his hood, though.

Look how they screwed up this beautiful frame by making it fit me.



NOT it's final incarnation. Just built with parts from the bike I rode to work on that day.
