It's less about hard core and more about FREE.

Less is more

Its not the length of the toptube that counts its the wall thickness.

Nice fixie. Got the cut and flipped. They do the job but I want that classic look so the tri-bullhorns are ordered.

love ure tires mezz, they match the bike awesome. cant tell in the picture really, but the bike kinda seems to have a dark blue almost purple look and the tires look great. take all the stickers off and that thing would look stealth.

I don't think you'd ever get Mez to take his Cecil Walker stickers off!

i really dig chop and flops, but on a track bit with track geometry, standard track drops really help me in the steep hills. i gotta try a set of chop and flops though.
