Eh, I still ride one, but it's not for the hipster in me.

Since I get so much traffic from this post, here's a gallery that actually works....

YOU KNOW IT! Without VTEC all hope is lost, we all know that already, its been proven countless times.

Bike looks nice, needs a drop and some rotas.


Only if more people rode a bike to work if its within range people wouldnt have to be paying 3 bucks a gallon

you forgot the 5 point harness and cage. SAFETY FIRST

 

theres a gang of scene kids that ride these bikes around the streets of tallahassee. pretty funny stuff. thats a nice bike too.

 

I'm under the impression somebody's SUV, Killed their American Soldier.

as far as i know it there isn't a 'scene' of kids with fixies here, and yes i use my brakes, i value my life, and my knees, baby steps my friend. no brakes may look cooler, but no brakes isn't smart when you are in traffic and you have to stop quick. sure i could enter a skid, but that's equally dumb

I wouldnt say its dumb, if you know what you are doing you shouldnt have a problem. once you ride for a while you will get used to it. I have been riding track bikes on the streets for going on 10 years. never had brakes, and I have never had a problem. I live in a city and I've riden in DC, NY, and many other city's without a problem.....

heres my current set up

 

nice, but it needs to be slammed and add an itr lip!

 

nice. i want them bars.

 

nice fixie.

I don't have a fixed gear bike, but my '86 Trek 310 Elance road bike get me around Long Beach most of the time.

 

ive been thinking about getting one of these for work but i live 15 miles from work

i don't think i'd bike 15 miles daily, unless it's normal to sweat at work and you live on a fairly non-hilly area

then again, what do i know, i'm just an office newb

 

that second bike looks pretty crazy

meh, they're borderline comfy. i'd prefer them over a flat bar probably or the full bullhorns but i can't see them being the most comfortable for longer rides

by the way, http://www.bikecoalition.com it's the honda-tech of biking people, come on over

 

im waiting for prices to hit $4.00 a gallon and then i will get a bike. im about 3-4 miles from work. straight shot, flat road.

wicked bike

 

i like but ditch the brakes or else your not cool brakes are like altezzas in the fixie world

 

Why is fixed cooler than having different gears?

I'm just trying to understand.

 

single speed sucks

i did a 3x9, 2x9 e13, 1x7 w/e13, and a 1x3 (limited rear mech movement on the h/l adjust)...but god...i'd never go single

 

Nice racing bike man, is that the s2000 of speedbikes? lol j/k

You need to be pushing one of these things hombre, "homiez por vida!!"
