I wanted a new singlespeed/track bike with some specific requests and I found out Kaspar was looking to build a frame for someone other than himself... The geometry has a strong influence from the Ritchey Swiss Cross and my Surly Straggler, but 'Track'ed. This thing has commuted, done overnight trips both fixed and with brakes, but for now I'm happy with it as a big tyre track bike
