I'm moving into the city(Cleveland) and i'm not sure what type of lock combination I should use.

I have an On Guard Beast that weighs about 10 lbs, so it's pretty heavy in my bag.

I'm thinking about getting a u-lock to lock my front wheel to my frame and maybe some type of cable.

What lock combo do you use?

Fuck George

Thats a tight bike man, I feel your pain. did you do anything to deserve this? They had to plan stealing your bikes. You must have seen them around once before.

Good luck mate

A fixed gear rider can't just have a few drinks, its get shit faced or bust. It's more fun biking drunk anyhow. I've never crashed or passed out on my way home, but I've definitely blacked out and completely forgotten riding home.

Good luck with the bag of bones in the morning tho man!

Hey quick tip,

Never, never, ever use WD40 for lubing your parts. WD40 strips away grease leaving your parts bare metal. Metal on metal causes a lot of friction and will wear away your parts. Only use WD40 if you plan on eventually wiping it off and re greasing with copious amounts of grease.

I build bikes, hang them on the wall, then sit a masterbate to them for hours.

Why ride when you can just masterbate, right?

Good luck getting your steed back, it looked like it has some serious sentimental value from all those spoke cards I see

If you grease your tapers, there is a chance that you may split your crank.

You need some work on that color scheme, I want to barf. Go with some classy stripes.

The only five spoked wheel I can think of is called an Aerospoke. They make these wheels out of Carbon. The Carbon wheel is laced to a velocity rim. I'd steer clear from buying a plastic spoked wheel, for it would be way to heavy than it's worth.

I just read the polishing thread by Jol. Was that stem originally alloy? I didn't know you could shine it up that nice!

By far the best custom bags I've seen are from Seagull Bags in Columbus, Ohio. Great company, they always sponsor the races around here and make a custom one-up for that race(Like the one above is from Lucky Stride during St.Pattys day celebrations). Hit up their site:

I've been riding horizontal dropouts on my fixed gear for awhile. I stand behind the notion that they're just as convenient, if not more than track dropouts. I guess the one problem I can think of is the lack of good chain tensioner for horizontal drops, but at the same time, I hardly ever see people using tensioners on a track frame... But if you need that label of having a "track bike," then make the purchase.

You'll enjoi riding fixed more than riding single speed. But if you're looking for a mellow ride to work, ride freewheel.

steeeeeezy my amigos. my apologies on the language barrier. No need for the seppo business, I mean no harm.

that is a sweet fucking bike, i'm about to blog it. check out my steeze if your interested people. http://clefix.blogspot.com/

I'd keep it classy and go with Velocity Deep-V's or their look alikes (Wiennman DP18)

Sell the langster and start from scratch with some deep v's and a 3rensho or a samson!
