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)

This time, stakes is high. RS is arguably the wizard of all wizards when it comes to lugged steel frames. you know bikes, you know Sachs.
His frames are $3K or so, and if you ask owners, worth it. Ask Don Walker, or any other framebuilder.
The capo di tutto.
Donate $100---i know, steep--only 60 donations accepted. Since this is a promotion--NOT a raffle, lottery, scam from Nigeria.
You will donate online and receive a receipt with Histiocytosis tax ID #: 22-2827069
If you really want to send a check, send to:
Histiocytosis Association of America
Attn; Richard Sachs promo
72 East holly Ave,. suite 101
pitman, NJ 08071
they will send you a receipt for taxes.
But checks may be too slow to jump on this train.

Even so, will I be the proud new owner of a 73cm randonneur frame with a dusty Colnago-via-Pollock '80s splatter finish?

(Am I getting custom specs, or does this frame already exist?)

I cried like a baby... some day I hope to possess something as beautiful... but you can never really own something that great, only take care of it till the next person comes along... e-richie, you da man *infinity. If I can scrounge up 100 clams in time I'll definately throw in a donation.
