A fixie? Not for me.

Kazane sponsors half of everything cool at Dick Lane velodrome, and the owner frequents there. No Brakes is close with them etc..
Ya know, Atlanta, you live there, you guys have a track, your city loves Kazane.

:facepalm

Those bars are ill, what are they?

You live in Atlanta... This is for you!

Finally got back on my bike today, it's the first time I've actually had time to ride anywhere decent in over a month. Felt so good to get out and get hauling ass on it again, I missed it so much! We're starting to slow down now at work, so I'll have some time to ride for a while, at least until the weather starts to turn. Winter will be here soon, then it's time to start snowboarding!

Soma el Torro... Basically a Nitto RB021 copy. Good shit. My fav bar, but bulky. I can get a realistic usable 4-5 hand positions from it.

this thread needs more pictars, soooo...

wheel build:



almost done, just needing some tension!


done, tires mounted, and on the peugeot:


and one on the bosses bike for shits & giggles:


all these were taken in the shop that i've worked at since '04. the peugeot was my dad's, he bought it before he married my mother, and gave it to me years ago for college. i love it, it's far from prefect, but full of character! i've since switched to bullhorns. i love the hand positions, but like the look of the drops better.

I picked up another bike... I think I have a disease..


I used to own this bike before, and it didnt receive such treatment as now.
2006 IRO Dedacai tubed (think EAI Bareknuckle) limited run track bike. I'll post some pics soon.. Here are some keywords to this build... NJS, H Plus son, Miche, Campy, Kashimax, Toshi, Dura Ace. I got it back because I've been having knee problems and back problems and finally come to the conclusion that its been my bike fitment and the strain of riding brakeless and skidding so much in such a hilly city. I've never felt pain on this bike...

The first step is admitting you have a problem... :D This is how I'm getting with my longboards.

It sucks, I have NO ONE to ride my bike with anymore. All the super-trendy fixie kids aren't riding anymore. Those of us who actually like RIDING the bike (as opposed to driving it downtown on roof racks, taking it off and riding it around downtown/standing with it in groups, then putting it back on the racks and driving home) are stuck riding alone. :(

yep, sure enough, circa 77'-78' iirc.

[Freshjive]

Is anyone in to Trithlons?
