2020 Post your Single Speed and Fixed Gear Thread
Happy New Year to everyone.
I'm bringing in the New Year with some new paint. It was a hasty rattle can job,but I like it. Didn't originally plan to color match the stem but I think it works.

KHS Urban Soul that I got used and turned into a commuter / road bike. It has an 18t freewheel and a 17t fixed gear cog.

I recently replaced the chain with a new KMC 410 cause I need to replace the rear cog (previously a 15t) with a new 16t Dura Ace cog that I bought almost a year ago. I need to get a bigger chain ring asap.
