and from that you can probably understand about how much my other bikes suck[/quote]
cockpit aside, looks awesome. It needs to get dirty and be ridden the shit out of (not like I even ride my bikes that much, so who am I to judge)
Trevor, you have the same right to judge as me minus 10 days.
seriously, wtf is up with this? Motherfuckers with no foot retention and brakeless, it’s like 2008 all over again.[/quote]
Synchronicity–with more snow on the roads in Madison, I keep seeing more dudes on flat platform, brakeless shitboxes. Is it a midwest timewarp?
They all read that one page on Sheldon about snowfixies
TC: It was 10 degrees this morning and I rode my shitfix.
TC: Dig the Iowa name-dropping. Grinnell. Ames. Grimes. Mayhem Comics. Java Joe’s. Zombie Burger.
TC: Longhaul Truckers make me yawn. I think it’s the color. And the bonerstem.
Iowa name-dropper checking in. Went to ISU in Ames for 4.5 years.
TC: It was 10 degrees this morning and I rode my sw8fix with brakes and SPDs.

Appreciate your enthusiasm, new jack. Who are you with those bull moose bars, intern for product development at Riv? Your artisanal axe game leads me to expect a fop holster somewhere on that bike.
