demik,
Why would they have a spoked wheel in back and a tri-wing-y thing in front?

i have no idea about anything revolving fixed gear bikes. some say the carbon handles the road better but i dont know if they're full of crap or not.

Either way, nice looking ride... I imagine that it is a bit pricey though. Is the idea- Less weight=better?

what? not enough loud colors, spoke cards for you?

you have to admit, that actually looks decent compared to some of the hipster crap that's rolling around in SF/LA.

i was mostly commenting on the frame. i dont like the two tone wheel set up
i dunno it's still pretty tacky. deep V + tri spoke is like Fixed Gear Dork 101. i can appreciate a few track bikes... on the track... otherwise outside of a die hard core that's been doing the fixed gear thing for 10+ years it's some trendy cool kids game and i am not down with bikes as accessories.

what's so tacky about the colors?

grey and blue is a nice colorway. and yeah, tri spoke is a staple of fixed gear hipsters

JWAZ about time you post your damn bike!

oh, nothing about the colors is tacky, it's the whole bike together that i think is tacky. but that's a lot of thought put into parts and $1000 frame to create that gradient... time and money that could be spent riding and eating burritos?

and jwaz JUST got his bike built.

possibly, that's a cinelli x mash SF set up IIRC. carbon wheels are pretty damn expensive. which makes the whole fixed gear culture a huge contradiction. they claim they liked fixed gear because it's cheap.. but some of these bikes cost more than road bikes WITH gears.

don't make me post my trispoke :D :D :D

but that pursuit geometry on the cinelli mash colab is a little silly (esp. on the street) IMO

edit: here are some more pics from when that front wheel was first built:

i like track bikes :) once i get a little further into the sport i'd love to get a track bike and possible a tri bike to compete in triathlons.

i just hate the attitude some of these "mashers" have. bunch of ass bags.

phosphorescent  coating on the paint so it reacts to UV and you can sort of charge it, those pics where it is REALLY bright are long exposures :/
