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)

No matter how many times you guys keep saying "I hope they honor it" they're not going to. They're not liable for typos, get real guys.

They've been changed to "track rings" on the amazon site. I think the gig is up now?

Alright, so I figure by now I'm not getting the complete....at least give me the crankset and tires, and we'll call it a deal.

Ps- you can keep the chainring

I think they have the right idea about branding--- and definitely are looking better than Pake, Origin-8, and the legions of other followers jumping on the band wagon.

As for their frameset--- it looks like it has the same odd sizing philosophy as the Surly--- as in 3 cm increments. At least it has more of a true track geometry than the Steamroller.

I can't believe they kept ordering after I said this,"They've done this before, it will not be honored." BTW, they've done this before, told you it will not be honored.

thanks for sharing what has been said already. Shut up unless you have something useful to add to the thread. Like if your order got canceled, or you got shipping conf.
