What's the FCN adjuster for one of these? Got to be -2 at least?

    not sure if that should be -2 But +2 since it's not likely sugest intrest in performance per say.

    in the same way a FG/SS with drops i'll give more credit than flat bars. simply because of the type of rider that I see on either.

    I can't see the hatchet storage loop on his belt, but I assume there is one.
    What do you mean you think 64cm is a big frame?

    You can use all our masks to ride your fixie if you like, although that was just an idea we had to give the people the chance to look as cool as their bikes.

    I wouldn't use the word 'cool' myself.

    God the silver one looks like something Hannibal Lecter might wear on a track race!

    The jasonesque one is quite amusing - i'd prefer a full on alien head design tbh. side note -= I really want someone to make a respro lower jaw bone mask.

    isn't that always the way though, I'm fairly sure on my odd forays down the embankment as I and dirty muddy bike pass a immaculate fixie, and rider, despite being both on Single Speeds, both think "what does he look like!"

    While I'd never ride one I can appreciate the appearence of a stripped down minimalist trad framed fixie with colour matched tyres etc etc - that just looks stupid - and HOT (sweaty I mean).

    Of course it is all perception, the roadie I chased down on his high end carbon framed Focus on my be-panniered Hybrid commented I was quite quick "on that thing".....I don't think it was meant as a compliment, but like a hammer I consider my commuter as function over form!
