Everyone seemed to think aero bars on a single speed were a waste but little did they know this would let me pretend to be a track racing star like young Phinney at the olympics.
I have to say I was pleasantly surprised how easily the bike challenged the hills on the harrisburg loop. I'd almost want a little harder gearing on it... Maybe after a few more rides.
Oh- the steel is totally comfortable to ride on-nothing hurts from the ride. O may also have to consider checking position and the saddle and look for a similar setup for the race bike. I think for my next bike I will look at a surly or hampsten steel frame single that can take some big tires.

Welcome to the world of single speeding.
single simplicity is scrumptious
Nice bike, and yup, steel is real!
Bike Porn - YEAH !
Cool Bike.
Figured I'd drop this here since you have been online here more recently than the Space site. I found out from Kyle and Spoke and Sport that the Giant just needs a rear hanger. So I told them to go ahead and hook it up. Call you sometime this week. - Josh
