this is my first fixie, but I've had it for a year and a half...this is its 3rd paint job (a new paintjob is around the corner). It used to be super trail worthy with a 40 - 16t, wide rims and 700x35 cyclocross tires. Its seen various changes and will probably see more once I get something nicer and turn "ol frankie" here in to something else.
