Snowing in Boulder... brrrr. No flap on that front fender, Mr. C?
(asked he who once rode a New Year's Day century on packed snow,
warmest reported local temp., 19deg F) (42/17, w/flap or I probably
wouldn't have made it).
How did you fixe-luxe (tnx for pics, compliments) riders deal with
chainline?
This is my (RIP, Johnny Cash) '59/'60/'74 Fixelac, 44/15, 1/8"; a Hans
Schneider OS steel track frame, ebay "Cinelli" road fork that darn near
matches for red:

Chainline, "the natural way" (track hub, cog, crank) <g>. It was not
always so, but I got away with it (murder, in retrospect). "Never

There's a (t)rusty old Holdsworth touring frame in the pile, awaiting
parts (today, Mr. Postman?), incl. a better fender bracket or two, plus
a drop bolt to add Campy NR f. brake, delete ancient Universal 61 with
ancient straddle wire. Old build up, fooling around with handlebars:

Re- (un-) dished old CRec road hub, with track adapter (HED?), road
pitch cog on backwards. Gonna put a rear rack on, too. --D-y
