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's high maintenance, but it's worth it.

I like how the two drawings are arranged to make it look like the guy on the right is staring at the ass with contemplation.

Those drawings are not the product of a life drawing class but the product of a stick of charcoal and a pair of binoculars ! - (in the UK standing naked at a window fervently drawing away whilst looking at mens butts in the swimming pool opposite your apartment with binoculars is still illegal)

Very nice bike nonetheless.

Haha, caught! What you don't see is the topless chick staring at another chick's rack on the two drawings above. It's all about balance.

After the reaction to TripleC's bike, I thought mine would get torn apart, since it's pretty much an Italian/Japanese/American mutt.

Credit where credit's due, though... I walked into Velo Culture one day and basically asked Anthony to build me a hot retro conversion with white bartape and saddle, and it evolved into a bike version of a classic Thunderbird. Most of the bike was his design, but the polished rims were my idea.

Thats a nice clean build, a sturdier front would also improve the lines of the bike I think.
