How about we just change your name to something more manly instead. Perhaps Bill, or Frank would better suit you? :lol:

Sure, "Frank" works. Just don't call me Francis -- any of you guys call me Francis, and I'll kill you.

I was thinking the same thing. But wait, at the switch of the remote lever it is rigid.

But uh, doesn't that defeat the simplicity of the singlespeed? :wink:

Would it be ok if it was a remote lever for an adjustable seatpost? :wink:

Nice ride Barcy, you'll either love it or hate it; there is no in between on an SS. But it definitely takes commitment.

WTF I don't check this for a few days and the smack talk starts. Ali let me know when you want to ride, I don't see Barcy riding this bike much (it is difficult)

Nice bike!

I agree about that saddle, eeeek! Before I opened the thread, I was thinking it was gonna be one of those rigid 29'ers, ie no squishy fork, and you know that's only like one step from the full-freakdom of the rigid-fixie-mtb mutants, so it's great to see that Reba up there. You're (both) gonna love that thing!
