You need to repaint that frame. That ain’t it. Respectfully.

Dope – I tend to think really aero frames look too much like performance-oriented sporting equipment for my tastes, but this has some personality to it, and the build looks nice and clean.
Personally I think a contrast color chain would be a nice addition – nothing cheesy just something other than black – would give some eye pull to the all-important drivetrain, which is a defining characteristic of a fixed gear bike after all.
P.S. How’s the clamp-on kickstand treating you? I’ve considered one myself but never pulled the trigger. There’s a whole stigma against kickstands in the cycling community for no good reason, but it’s way better than scuffing up your nice bike leaning it against shit, or laying it unceremoniously on the ground when there’s nothing to lean against.
