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)

You should bump this https://www.bikeforums.net/singlespee...-love-109.html thread and post it here as well. Leaders don't get a lot of love these days.

I'll settle with partial credit.

The Capo's an underrated frame nevertheless.
