This is called the velociraptor, it has nothing to do with the bike I am building, I just thought I post a picture of the fixed-townie I enjoy riding. It's a bit goofy- but riding trails / streets are both pretty fun. That is a baguette in the water cage and on the handlebars, the tire I am going to mount on the rear - I hope the Bike Snob doesn't see this one. Clicking on the picture will take you to a link that makes the Photoshop edits really apparent.
On a side note, I was looking at the Bike Snob's (NYC) blog earlier and I am going to steal one of his topics only because I predicted this something was going to happen. "Fixed speed bikes" sold at Walmart (Fig. 2). They are actually single speeds, but they have a misleading name. If you break down the wording it is actually truthful, one - fixed - speed, not gear.
Figure 2. Where would department stores be without Mongoose?
