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)

Fairly high quality boutique branded framesets and parts not made in huge numbers and not widely sold stateside. If your size, and fits your needs it would be unique at least. If I remember correctly, they were pretty well regarded.

If you are able to ride it, then go check it out. If you buy it, take pics and let us know! Good luck.

Looks nice. The flamed finish will appeal to some, not to others. Nice, long rear fork ends, that's a plus.



Nice look...

My god why couldn't they have put at least one set of bottle cage mounts on it, nice frame otherwise. The aversion to water bottles in the fixed gear world is perplexing.
