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)

It's a mini-skirt and the frame is a step-through girl's bike, so I'd say no problem. The helmet over the eyes, OTOH...

Bloody Scrod, can't beat him at one-up-manship can you.

Where did I see that bike recently? Thought it was here or pedalroom. Probably somewhere else though.

That “newsboy” bike is in no way jackass…

Meanwhile, on another forum that I visit occasionally they are talking about this bike as pr0n – to me it is jackass

What do you guys here think?

Proof that the ability to do something doesn't mean you should. That's just horrible.

Assuming it's functional, it's a matter of taste. I quite like it, actually. Except for the fork and handlebar, they seem out of place...
