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 bike is sick in my opinion. The triple fork, clip on bars, front disc, and the wheel base all make it awesome.

Steel - You twist it, then you twist it again, one more time after that, and it still works. Frame material like no other.

I have no idea how that bike feels to ride, but there's no way that's jackass imo, that's art.

Raleigh 'Track' bike

I am selling my Raleigh track bike. it was originally an 8 speed and i converted it to a single speed by just taking off the smaller sprocket and setting it on a single gear. I turn the drop bars upside down and cut them into bull horns and relocated the brake to a single front brake. All parts in good condition, the tubes are new, tires are kinda old but still work fine. the bike rides really smooth and it makes a fun cruiser bike. The color is actually a really nice black with silver sparkle. let me know if you have any questions by emailing or texting me at ***-***-**** thanks!
Trey

BTW, they don't provide any particular aero benefit like the Zipp 808, 404, or Mavic Io. So, many people are like, "Why bother?".
Isn't there someone on this forum with a 14 pound wabi? And its not all crazy like that mash

If you have these in a 13 (or even a twelve) I will pay you way too much for them if they are pristine. Those kicks are so sick (assuming you mean the Nike collabo). The Three Inches of Blood ones are cool, but the IMs are amazing.

On another note; is that a knock off thomson stem? Or I didn't know they made stems without their namesake.
