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)

Leader Love!

Scrod,

That was directed to Squirreli, and your 725 is in an entirely different weight class, has about 10lbs on mine

Ohhhh....about my Omnomnoms. I thought you were saying that because there had once been talk of us unleashing our bikes at the same time.

LOL you'll kill yourself... had a friend have that set up on a MTB and it caused him to oversteer and wreck, broke his arm.

Ha, thanks, those bars are very temporary, just my first try with track-ish drops.

I have a question about 725's: there are 3 versions, correct? Aside from the 2011, how can you tell the V1 and V2 apart? The only think I could point out was the weld of the seatpost mount on the seat tube which the V2 has but the V1 doesn't...

Leader pointed it out on their official page before they introduced the 2011; but luckily Iminusd copypasted it exactly from them and have them on sale at the moment.

BETTER STAINLESS DROPUTS
EXTRA WELDING ON SEAT TUBE
MORE CHIP AND SCRATCH PROOF PAINT
TWO EXTRA COATS OF CLEAR
DECALS CAN PEEL OFF
THISCKER BB SHELL
NEW RAW COLOR OPTION
THICKER AND MORE DURABLE ALUMINUM

So apparently my 722 made it to the "finals" on Fixie Fights and I'm second to a hideous monster of a full-carbon conversion.

Vote for me so I can see what kind of stuff I win.

Damn, that quintana roo frame is making me wet...
BUT I voted for you scrod as that quintana roo deserves gears and a proper saddle instead of that POS that's stuck on its seatpost.

That full carbon bike looks ridiculously ugly.
Voted for you I suppose.
