Back! Sadly it is 5 posts + 24 hours, then 5 post + 24 hours until you have 10. (So I hope to be "free" now) :)

I will take a look! :) (afraid the beer is espresso in my case) :P

Very nice! The BB seems quite different, but I also suspect the frame of non-fixie to be slightly older than my own. The similarities are interesting!
My frame also has quite similar oval supports...
