I'm glad you're still loving the bike. If it had been just a bit bigger I probably couldn't have parted with it now matter how much I needed a new bike. In fact, after spending a lot of time (and money) on my mountain bike and road bike...I went back to the basics. I spend 90% of my time riding a single speed that was built from a spare parts and a rewelded frame. Just can't beat the simple joy of a single speed. Thanks man.

Thanks for your support! Just to clarify - if you do make a pledge towards our project you will be getting a 'reward' in return... So if you pledge $50 you are essentially pre-ordering a copy of the book. If you pledge $250 you will get a copy of the book and your name will appear on a special page in the book. And so on... You can pledge as little a $1. If we do not meet our funding target the project will sadly be cancelled… Thanks! Stan. Hi Pedal-Pusher! Thanks for your support!
