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)

All in all, trendy looking bike with the colored chain, risers, white Deep V's, spoke cards, good luck charm and track set up. Throw on a top tube protector and you have the full deal. Not that that's a bad thing at all, though, and no harsh feelings meant, because I really like this bike...

I love the bike. Suggestion .... leave the bike a 27 inch,but some people say go with 700c. Peeps will tell you it's easier to get tires for 700c than a 27 ''....blah blah blah. If you plan on making your Fuji an everyday ride go with the 700c,but if you are going to use it as a weekend rider then stick with 27" (it just looks original).

Wow a Zero Gravity brake on a steel frame with Deep V's. Way to shave those grams!

Well, keep in mind that the ZG brake is also crazy stiff. Maybe not M5 stiff, but very very stiff.
