That ad is nearly 20 years old...could have sworn it was 'just a few years ago'

For sure!
Love the custom cranks on the flat bar one.

BMX cranks, no?

Custom BMX-style cranks, according to the Bikepacking.com article about the builder.

what andyBmore said.

Will Shimano's new GRX groupset open up a new generation of messlyfe fixies?
Hydraulic disc brake fixies with cross top brake levers - you read it here first

Not sure if dirty bikes are still allowed in here, but been really enjoying my Day One lately. Not the fastest, not the lightest, not the stiffest, but just does the job really well.

Nice silver rack suggestions? Canti mount ideally. Something a little wider as well

I have a Nitto M12 going soon

Ohhh, could always zip tie a basket on if I need wider load capacity.

I may take that instead of the rawland

It is for cantis u dummy

ah was thinking of your M18

SimWorks sells a wider version of the Nitto Marks Rack

What was stopping you doing it ten years ago?

The not-invention of hydraulic cross top levers

I still don't get it. Unless you're implying that the only thing that's stopped anyone from ever running disc brake equipped fixed bike was.....a 31.8 clamp....

That's exactly what I'm saying. It was kind of a joke though which obviously went the wrong way

Fair do's.
You can achieve the same results with a b-spec lever and an Sti clamp.

nice

I'm a sucker for a Rohloff.

My Cherubim all settled build wise.
