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)

It didn't work with the Campy BB, can't recall what the problem was.

I'm running a Specialities TA Xytech BB instead:

Oh, and clearance... you'll notice on the chain stay there's a black dot... that's where the crank strikes the chainstay when I sprint. It's close... a millimetre or two.

I am really digging how all the components are specifically for the color section (ie. one silver, one black hub) on that GTB

I for one like it. Though if you're red/green color blind I can imagine it'd be annoying.

Man, that's pretty harsh. The frame color is actually a yellow color as well as the saddle. The headset is blue and so is the chain. I mean, different strokes for different folks. The bike is sick and I'm the only who should care about the actual aesthetics. I guess you are entitled to your own opinion. Just to let you know I'm not obnoxious I just love neon. I would say I'm a pretty pleasant person to be around.

Oh, and I live in an area where crack heads like to steal bikes and if one does it's going to be really hard to camouflage.
