Tasty Three-Speed
Snapped these while ordering a Philly Cheesesteak at the a Firehouse Grill in South SF. They used red bell peppers instead of green today and they were especially sweet today.
This is a co-worker's 3-speed project bike. The Pake track frame is built up with our IGgy (internal gearing) wheels which feature Sturmey-Archer hubs. The wheels features nice alloy rims with machined braking sidewalls. The front hub is our SoMax track hub. The cable is routed along the top tube with alloy clamp-on cable guides. (The second one is not in use. He opted to run a CX cable roller to direct the cable down to the hub.) It also has a Cardiff Cornwall saddle and Soma Oxford bars. Green brakes are Dia-Compe and green headset is IRD. Other components are just from the ol' parts box.

What a beautiful and practical improvement over a singlespeed.
