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)

Yeah - now that you freaked us out with the straight-on side views, how about on an angle so we see the split/both colors at once

BTW - what happened to the original fork?

Right now the bike is on loan to a friend, but I'll be sure to post some photos next chance I get.

The original fork was damaged in a wreck over 20 years ago.

Cool. Makes perfect sense. The color reminds me of Marlboro Racing Red form the 70s - 90s. Kinda in between red and pink. Sorta fluorescent, kinda.

You can't even tell, I'd call that a win. I love that bike.
