  • OK, it was a year ago since I last posted and I'm still searching for my practical fixed-gear bike.

    What I would like is:

    Mudguard mounts front and back
    Front and rear rack mounts if possible (if not then ideally just front rack mounts, for a porteur rack)
    28mm tyre clearance minimum
    120mm track spacing if possible, otherwise 135mm
    700c
    Road-ish geometry
    Flat-topped fork crown

    I am fussy and I would not compromise on the flat-topped fork crown.

    So I'm thinking a fixed gear Cross Check is the way to go but that really has too much clearance - I already have a big-tyre bike. If the Steamroller had mudguard mounts and front rack eyelets it'd be purrr-fect. There was a frame called the Tokyo Fixed Dream Machine a couple of years back that I regret not getting.

    Anyone know of such a frame?

  • That looks spot on doesn't it. Never heard of that before but it looks excellent.
