[RBW] Commuting on the fixed gear SimpleOne - revisited

2013-04-27 Thread David Spranger
So it has been a little over a month of almost exclusive use of the fixed gear SimpleOne (I did ride a few days on my Homer, here and there). Though I don't have the passion for fixed gear that I hear from some people, I can say for sure that there will always be a place for a fixed gear bike

Nice bike. I was afraid for a second when I saw the picture. Against that fence I thought Grant had started putting double top tubes on the bike. My Quickbeam has been my commuter for the last 7 years and my go to bike for most rides. They are great bikes. Larry Powers Get a bicycle.

I read the list via gmail and three different ads for what seems to be the same bar showed up at three different times. Not a big deal, though I think that one ought to edit one's ad offline and post it once -- a rule I often neglect because I am too hasty and leave things out; I will try to

Good point, Steve. I was trying to say that the Dream Bar was more a 1970s bar, whereas the Noodle is more a 1950s bar in the mold of the Philippe Professionel. (There were other 1950s bars, some of which had almost no ramps at all.) Jan Heine Editor Bicycle Quarterly www.bikequarterly.com On
