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)

FWIW, he also removed the comments on his page.

Here's some of what is transpiring on his page before he removes it:

It's really sad it's become a "Jakarta takeover" for the past year or so.

I blame Faz. (Not Fazz7, lol)

There's some very deep pockets there through.... I'll outright admit that I personally reamed a guy for a composite wheelset of mine awhile back. Not to mention I intentionally shipped via UPS, fully ensured express brokage fees FTW.

Incredible.

Maybe I should have just sold my Kagero to some guy in Indonesia when I had the chance.

If I ever decide to sell it again, I doubt I could get more than $450 with all the scratches it's accumulated.

The funny thing is that the sublime user there gets all high and mighty about using all kind of equipment at the track but less than a month ago he was getting his ass kicked at the track forum by carleton and others for posting that T3 that obviously was getting ridden at the street.

Just thinking out loud here, but impossible to add a disc brake to most road bikes with forks and rear chainstays that were not designed for them,............

.............until now!

So doesn't that bring it up a bit from "0"?

BTW, he's working on a shaft drive model to eliminate the "broken chain" worries.
