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)

They have custom columbus and dedaccai frames for $300 bucks. seems suspicious. They also have a frame with gilco tubing for $400. kinda feels like a steal. But what do you all think? I have never seen them before, I think they are fairly new.

If you convert them you get about what I mentioned in USD. The most expensive frameset, the gilco tubing is 300 euros which is just about $400. Dollars are much easier for most people on this site to understand so thats why i mentioned the prices in dollars and not euros
