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)

so i waited it out on the pake and no one bid.. then i messaged him and he said he'd lower the price

so it's relisted for $115 plus $60 shipping for $175 total

https://www.ebay.com/itm/190792474012...84.m1438.l2649

I'm also looking at this iro frame which is $150 plus $30 shipping for $180 total

https://www.ebay.com/itm/150987202608...84.m1438.l2649

which one is a better buy?

The IRO has braze-ons for racks and fenders, might be better for commuting if that's your intended use. Doesn't have a headset installed though, so you'd have to spend a little more on that.

Thanks.

I'll mostly be commuting with it but don't want racks or fenders.

The pake seller's checking for a better shipping quote so hopefully the price drops a bit. Think I'm going to go for it.

Would make an amazing Fixie, Fixed Gear, street racer, or coffee shop bike.

If I wasn't saving money for a cross-country move, you'd be on your way to get it right now.
