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)

If they get the price right on these, they'll sell a ton.

I'm still waiting for some (other than Schwinn) to make a Campy C-Record Sheriff star knock-off.

"The hubs are going to run very much like the Paul's." I hope without the wacky 44mm chainline Paul uses.

I wish it came in fixed/fixed. But they definitely have potential.

Every time I see any type of ridiculous anodized stuff, I get back on craigslist to look for an old Stumpjumper with horizontal drops. Sooner or later I'm gonna bite the bullet and make a seriously kickass early 90's singlespeed MTB. Track bikes are so 2005.

EDIT! Screw your Judy. Get a Mag 20

There was a seriously nice Bontrager MTB on Seattle Craigslist about a month ago that had been converted to ss. It was my size too, but I realized I'd never actually ride it. Oh, and I want a Fat Chance too. Those pop up every once in a while.
