Road fixed / fixed road

'Audax' bike with short headtube and enormous scoblestack:/

Agreed, that's in Planet X territory headtube length.

Could have been so much nicer with a sloping TT longer HT.

Acceptable specimen

Where did you find the geometry chart?

Would not have noticed that was a mash until I clicked on it. Not a very “mash” build. Nice though. Want that frame

so nice

I’d it just that it’s a small size? Something looks a bit ‘off’ with the geometry.

That's a humungous gear

Just not much post? It's a fit that looks good and works for some people but not many I think

Yeah might be that. Checked the geo chart and it's quite steep so might just be that, short wheelbase making it look very compact.

I'm looking for a frame with road geo, clearance for 30-32mm tyres with guards, mounts for guards too obviously and horizontal dropouts to run fixed. I want to run a steel disc fork with rack mounts but I can probably find one of those somewhere else. Does such a frame exist? Or is there a frame I could start with and get mounts added?

Edit: Also happy for rear spacing to be 120mm or 130/135

Neither of which are road fixed/fixed road

Which category do you think? Maybe new thread time

Love the bikes in this thread but the insistence on drops is a bit silly. If this woman can do Paris Brest Paris on bullhorns maybe we can accept that drop bars are a stylistic preference owing to thinking that road bikes == things that look like racing bikes. Whatever tho, I’m still going to be checking out the bikes here.

Neither of those are actual fixed gear frames though

Closest would be HHSB I suppose... Maybe post in the general current projects thread with a write up of the building process and see what category others think?

Pre-2013 P2s an P3s are fixed gear frames when the carbon dérailleur hangers snap off😊

You can post on HHSB or anti.

Genesis Day One 10?

That's a pompino
