RIP Sheldon Brown

A man of uncompromising integrity, he is essentially the biggest reason so many of us have converted to single speed cycles. His website is still the defacto site for info on bicycle repair. I saw him cycling once last year, on Huntington Ave, smiling.

I never met the dude, but I've spent many hours on his web site. His wheelbuilding page helped me lace up a set of custom wheels for an 80's BMX bike I restored a couple of years ago. They came out like butter.
