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)

I bet you're not using specially calibrated Deda calipers.

My CX bike will pretty much just be for fun too...more of a "commuter" than anything. I wanted something else with gears but have come to like cross geo over typical road bike geo.

There are a lot of pretty gnarly hills here and I get a little bored with killing myself to climb (and descend) them all the time.

I love bikes.
