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)

@Dave1978 , don't take my first comment to hard. Your bike seems nice; it just doesn't deserve its own thread. You should have posted it in the pics thread. There's also a whole thread devoted to cool stories called Today I.
It's all good. I gathered that so I reduced it to a picture. I'm just new to the forum so I don't know the protocols. I'm used to various guitar forums where you can post a NGD thread if you got a new guitar that you're excited about and want to share. It could be a $200 pawn shop prize or a $5000 custom Gibson. Its not a competition. If someone doesn't like it or doesn't give a sh$t they just ignore it. Of course bikes are not guitars. Bikes are just machines that are much easier to objectively compare in terms of parts and performance. A guitars value is much more subjective.

The bikes frame-set is a 7005 double butted aluminum frame with an Essor carbon fork. I know at that price point it's not pro gear or anything but what's "wrong" with it?

Lol that case holder is brilliant, I would think a nice gig bag with backpack straps would be more convenient though.
I want to know if the guitar-bike is rideable.

Those guitar pedals are pretty rad in a Las Vegas kind of way.
