 Sweet Go Fasta Reddery at the Brooklyn Pave Ride

Reading about the Brooklyn Pave Ride (I dropped the accent mark, i know) is awesome enough.. man I’d love to ride that… but I was especially stoked on this KHS Aero fixie. Not only as someone who enjoys riding fixed-gear on inappropriate ride events, but specifically because I’ve been jonesing to build a Go Fasta Red bike with black wheels for a long time. Even all paint-raw, and maybe BECAUSE of it, this looks wonderful to me. Bike Pr0n Tuesdays!
