I got one of those, too! Mine's "raw", they didn't offer chrome when I bought it. Bikes direct can be dangerous, they just make it so easy! lol. Seems like a good bike for the money, although it's the only fixie I've ever ridden so I don't have anything to compare it to.

I probably ride this one the most out of all my bikes, if not in outright mileage (my road bike) then in terms of number of rides. I've come to really like riding fixed, and this one was cheap enough that I don't worry too much about locking it up somewhere and leaving it alone for a while. I'm too paranoid about the trek to leave it unattended.

I've made a few changes from stock, nothing crazy, and I've chopped the steerer tube down since this pic was taken to get rid of all those spacers:

Something about the unlikely pairing of grey and orange just gets me.

Edit: Color looks like crap in that lighting, here's another one I found on teh interwebs (not mine):

This thing is sexy. Id be afraid to run that chain through it. I wouldnt want to scratch it

The Mercier Kilo TT Stripper Chrome Edition

PS.

Too bad they're plumb out of stock!

The chrome always sells out first whenever they get a new batch in. I couldnt get one so I bought a different chrome bike instead. I couldnt wait lol

That Trek needs a Nexus IGH, with a twist shift, and the cable run through the bars and frame, like on a motorcycle. Sleeper.

State bike company I made it custom. Doesn't have original parts all have been upgraded but the frames are dope.

I would say jamis sputnik for using it as a general single speed / fixie. or mercier kilo TT. mercier is too tracky for the city. uncomfortable for long rides. if you are comparing fuji feather to any of the above you are 200% retard. feather is scam. comes with walmart promax brakes, 19.99$ lasco cranks and cheap basic straight gauge tubing. just seat tube is butted. it's worth 479$ at a bike shop at most. not 700$.

It's not the Wabi I ride.

The hand brazed Wabi Special with the upgraded chromed lugs.
Classic road geometry = nimble, smooth ride. Assuming based on your avatar you are a Reynolds fan. Richard uses Reynolds 725 in the Classic and Special.

Best looking bike.
