Nice. BMX inspired single-speed road bikes are my favorite thing right now. I figured you meant "not" too expensive.. so it's cool that it has survived wrecks. I love bikes that can take a beating. In fact, I don't feel all that comfortable riding in traffic unless I'm on a bike that I know won't break if I'm in a minor collision with a car. Also, I prefer to be able to ride on gravel and dirt and hop curbs and such.

Good to see a beach cruiser actually being used to cruise to the beach. :)

the specs :)
early 90s hand welded Ron Cooper frame and forks
Cinelli Centurion drop bars
Cinelli quill stem
hand spoked DT Swiss deep v rims with double butted spokes
Shimano Ultegra SL prototype group....originally owned by Greg LeMond
the only difference now from when i took these pics (right after he was built....somewhere in 2009)....is the pedals....i've since started liking egg-beaters

Very, very nice. Is this the bike that you mentioned "saving from a kid who wanted to turn it into a fixie" a while back?
I'll dig up some pictures of my road bike (an Eddie Merckx Century TSX circa 1990) and show them next.
