Blue, Aqua, Orange and Silver... My first build, second fixie. I spent all freaking summer learning about bikes and getting the parts off Craigslist--the frame was the coolest addition: I originally acquired a 60cm Rob Roy frame, only to trade it for a completely new special edition Angus--at no cost. I built the front wheel myself and owe much thanks to Zinn's bike book, Quad Bikes, and Cambridge Bike shop for advice:) The blue tires were a splurge, and I am saving up for a Nitto Jaguar stem, possibly Chris King headset...
Until it gets stolen, watch for me on the streets of Cambridge and Boston--and know that the blue streak you saw was "Aaron's Bike" passing by.
Just updated the headset and stem! I should post a new pic soon!
