Singlespeed Bicycle Conversions
More and more cyclists are discovering the joys of simple, one-speed bicycles. Many cyclists are rebelling against the excessive complication, fragility and weight of current mountain bikes. Why ride a Singlespeed? Modern 24-27 speed bikes are marvels of technology, and allow a cyclist to select the gear ratio that will make the most efficient use of his/her energy. If what you're after is getting the maximum possible speed/distance for the minimum effort (and there's nothing wrong with that!) a multi-speed bike is what you need...but, efficiency isn't everything!
Ce compte-rendu arrive bien tard, mais il aura le mérite d’exister… Le SingleSpeed World Championship 2011 avait lieu à la fin du mois d’août, à Kilfinane, un petit village irlandais entre Cork et Limerick. Cela faisait quatre ans que le SSWC avait lieu hors d’Europe, depuis l’Aviemore (Ecosse), en 2007. Les premiers concurrents étrangers sont arrivés à Kilfinane le jeudi.
One Gear
The purpose of this not-for-profit site is to encourage those interested in enjoying and preserving vintage lightweight "racing" style bicycles of the period from the early 20th century until 1983. These are primarily steel, most often lug built, not welded, injection molded, or glued. Here we are devoted to road and pista machines, not mountain bikes, BMX, recumbent, middle weights nor balloon-tired bikes.
