New fixed gear version. Bar-ends. Bottle-cage mounted under
downtube. Disk brakes.
This is really going to please the fans.

While so many people are watching watts and horsepower I am betting
those using the new "climbs like a goat" metric will dominate this
years Tour de France.

They are really just laughing at us now. He appears to have been
