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)

... You might wanna consider lifting your bar up so your pelvis stands up on saddle. I mean I know some people have conditions, but for usual cases if you are sitting right, you should be sitting on the pelvis bones anyway. You could also have other problems like saddle height and stuff.

But I luuuuv your stem. I need that, real bad.

Appreciate the tip, since changing to an ism Ive had ZEro issues w/ taint ache cause the seat forces you to ride on your sitbones due to its design, I love the stem as well.thx

He recently bought some Bikeage stuff and I asked him where he's been hiding. He said he was taking some time away from BF to concentrate on more important things.
