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)

Bareknuckle frames are $520 at my LBS in Minneapolis, so it is not too far off. I know they are considerably more elsewhere. That is where I will eventually get mine.
