Here's another example on ebay. An Eisentraut fixie. Item number: 190309501371
I know this is nobody's business but the owner of said bike but yet is still rubs my fur the wrong way. Why not use it as a fixie and leave the braze on's there so it can be returned to its original state without repainting. Do those little braze'ons bother people so much????
