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)

Been playing bikes with my neighbor this afternoon and I always thought his bike is Pron-worthy - so here it is:



When I told him my intent for the pics I was taking, he snickered & told me that for here it would be better to wait for when he had the brake off & his track bar & stem on, but his bike kind of arouses me no matter how he's got it set up...

I've asked him about that & he told me that as much as he would like to build his bike all Italian, he is unwilling to pay the weight penalty that goes with vintage Campy bits & then suggested that I check how much old Campagnolo aero & fluted seatposts, or even something modern such as a Miche weighs. When I questioned him more, he stated that he prefers a zero-setback seatpost, so until he figures a better way is stuck living with a Thomson. I know bikes, been heavily involved with them my whole life (just not track or fixed gear), but he chuckles at my suggestions.

Sorry, not a professional photographer here, was just fooling around. Is this a thread for bike porn? Or is it a photography critique?

it dosn't take rocket surgery to take an adequate photo...maybe not in front of a blue tarp.
and its my opinion the porn thread is for nice photos of awesome bikes.
not trying to be a jerk to you, it just deserves a nice photo thats all.
