Surly is bringing back a limited run of their Steamroller fixie bike. Frameset only, $699. Drops on June 23rd at 9am CDT. Take note of that and get your order in, because there may be a (small) run on this re-introduced classic. Personally, my running will be more of "away" than "toward," but that's OK, you do you. I have the greatest respect for fixie riders, but it's just not my thing. Even the fans of fixies think the whole niche is stupid.
Here are some links: at Surly, news at Bike Radar, an old review. Not quite sure where to order one; left as an exercise for the student, you'll figure it out.
Right now though, I'm fighting a bad jones for a fat bike. With the relative lack of trails here in FL, having something to navigate beach sand is beginning to show its appeal. More than anything else, it's a lack of a place to keep it that's holding me back.
