[KuhlurzOfTalenTz]

where can i get a colorful fixed gear bike? please respond

[Grizly07]

So fucking cool! Please, add some more of this shit here! Thnx.

[maxmachine21]

i really like this. to me this if more about fixies than chumps with 3 peice cranks and bmx forks etc

keep it reaL

[beablader]

skidding isnt actually as hard as people say it just takes a lot of practice, the quicker your going the easier it is. im 15 and i do skids all the time to stop i dont run a brake and find that i can stop just as well by skidding depending on where my body weight is positioned over the bike. just pull up on the leading foot and push down on the trailing foot when your cranks are horizontal.

[Freerideboy2007]

omg buy a complete fixie ?

build your a fixie is not just a bike !

its a part of your personality !

[mavlols]

at 39 thats a spinnergy right?

[sim5441]

cool ---------------------RH+O FIXEDGEAR

[JohnBantam84]

Awesome! Love the fish eye!

[pitbullbootboy]

where I can get this dvd?

[eddielicious]

i rid my freinds today its harder then it looks and hard to brake

[baka6660]

haha fixie drifting noooice

[stopglobalswarming]

Fixed gear bikes can coast, usually with a freewheel. They only have a single ratio, determined by the front chainring and rear cog.

FIXED WHEEL bikes do NOT coast, as the rear cog is FIXED and must rotate with the hub.

[duncanbonar]

This song is legit

The Faint

your retro career melted remix

<33<33<33<33<33

[u333u333]

omg im getting my fixie tommorow or the next day!

[dddruggie]

where would you get a fixed gear like the ones on 39 and 1:11

[Astroboooy]

You can't get it as it is. You always have to buy the parts separately and fix it up yourself or your LBS.

[getthatfooty]

Thats not true. Many bike companies make them including the big name ones such as trek and schwinn. I wouldn't buy them buy thats just me.

[Micklol]

build your own bike dude

it's wicked fun!

[boogiekook]

those are custom built bikes. you can buy all the parts you want and then you assemble them. pricy though!!!

[yvanster]

By building one. Seriously, the best fixies are ones that you build lovingly from the ground up, part by part.

[shaokem]

Most all fixed gear bikes are customs... Paint and colored wheels make them stand apart. But any old frame from the 80's will do.

[laklikah8erz]

dope

[xmk23x]

Its just like a coaster brake. pedal back and skid. They're real cool. someone in SF invented it a few years back, for Kevin Bacon's movie Quicksilver. Awesome stuff

[KO3AK]

A fixed gear bike is the original form of a bicycle back when it was first invented. It is called the velocipede.

[getthatfooty]

xmk23x- learn to use google instead of looking like an idiot. fixed gears are sinply track bikes used on the street. and KO3AK is correct, watch the thomas edison video, moron.

[brettnchls]

Yeah, an older friend of mine who grew up in Soviet Russia told me that the state-made bikes were all fixed gears... of course because they were the cheapest to make.

[adambomb479]

Fixed gear is actually not like a coaster brake, The pedals spin all the time. and if you pedaled backwards, the bike would go backwards.

[profitsfrompoison]

invented it a few years back? track bikes have been around for hundreds of years.

i cant believe you actually said that

[shaokem]

Uhhh... no, it wasn't invented for the movie quicksilver. Fixed gear cycling got its start in track racing in whats called a velodrome... Hence the name Velo deep in fixie culture.

[imnotaballer]

r u talking about fixed gear bikes? cuz they shure as hell weren't invented for Kevin Bacon's Quicksilver movie, fixies have been around since bikes were invented.

[TheBenchMonkey]

dude, i like your drops, what kind of handlebars are those?

like which company/model

[doduc]

Nice video brothers. Keep living your way

[olliebaba269]

if any 1 knows of a good fixie site please pm me. nice vid btw

[doubletapm4]

japan?

[JueputaGuebon]

arnt most single speed kid bikes fixed gear? I remember having to skid with my old bmx and it was alot better than my multigeared Huffy piece of shit...still, dont you people enjoy coasting? having to pedal at all times must be a bitch after long rides.

[Micklol]

now, where can i get this dvd?

[Paintsnaked]

the song is The FAINT - Your Retro Career Melted (ursula 1000 remix)

[kwikslvr4]

[computername]

please what ist the name of the song? great..

forever fixed ;-)

[PanavisionLove]

Song?

[duncanbonar]

your retro career melted by the faint

its the remix

[flyingmumble]

how do u skid without leaning forward? is it just that they have really low gearing?

[siroctagon]

crank up HARD on your dominate foot, press down with your other. like back pedaling really hard.

[hovercroft]

its a fixed gear. as soon as u stop pedaling. the back wheel stops. causing it to skid..

[PanavisionLove]

My friend was doing drag races and his foot slipped out and of corse he was going crazy fast and he couldn't get his foot back in and he just ran strait into a chain link fence, Ouch! He woke up like a minuet later asking if he won, HE DID! then he went to the hospital!

[baileynoodles]

yep...that simple...just stop pedaling and see if you skid

[olecm1]

u dont just stop pedaling.

obviously u dont ride.

its not as easy as it looks..

[xindoboyvanderx]

whaa? it's fixed gear, the pedals never stop whether forward or backward. you have to cause pressure on your back foot to skid not stop pedaling, thats impossible

[back211]

you have to practise and muscle it out..thats what i do

[teenarcher]

Insane.

[guerrillagardening]

Look how easy he's skidding at 0:37! Crazy!

[zybanmongo]

for the love of god, please! some one tell me where i can find this DVD! i will gladly pay money to see this!

[digitalairbag]

[basimi18]

[csillie]

this strikes me as the most useless "sport" yet

[thecyclepath]

[Koshuk]

Sports are inherently useless, that's part of what makes them "fun".

Douche...

[blokjekaas]

we just love riding our bikes

[guitarguy950]

[thecyclepath]

[thagreenapple]

sickness

[worldscholar]

can normal bikes drift on the solid roads, or does it have to be a road, track or a fixy bike?

[eskachig]

Any bike with rear brakes can drift on "solid" roads. But it takes a little more skill on a fixed gear.

[T2000SVT]

id totally get this dvd if i had problems sleeping at night...........borrrrinnnnggg­g

[webgirl37]

[nathanong87]

Faint, The - 07 Your Retro Career Melted (Ursula 1000 Remix)

[HellaHyphy408]

whats the name of the song? thanks

[jhokeness]

tricks are not extremely visual, but i just bought a fixie, and it's hard enough to just ride downhill on those things!!

[tubuxalot]

seriously this is the worst sh!t ive ever seen skids arent tricks get a life

[hfuonstterer]

i was messing around and i figured out how to make a freecoaster and fixedgear work at the same time (just mess around with the pads in a old coaster brake hub

[asrizer]

i wore a helmet for the first time in weeks this morning and got nailed by a douchebag who came flying out of a lumber yard in an suv. i have never felt more gay, or alive.

[JustMyNipples]

why do fixed gear riders never wear helmets?

[skitzofreddy]

cause bike helmets are gay

[JustMyNipples]

oh. that's weird. I hate it when inanimate objects try to suck my dick.

only a gay person would have problem with a gay helmet.

[GermFreeFusion]

because they are morons.

[kronicred]

Fixie is the next skateboard!!!!!!

[k1a2z3i4k5]

Can anyone tell me how/where to get a copy of this DVD in the USA?! Thanks.

[comenter15]

[maggus1983]

Where can i get the DVD??

[Lollipop163]

To yourself, say the name of the only guy or girl you wanna be with 3 times

2. Think of something you wanna accomplish within the next week and say it to your self 6 times

3. If you had 1 wish what would it be? say it to yourself 9 times!!!

4. Think of something that you want to happen

send this to at least 15 videos and your dream will come truex x x x x x x

[svenmagik]

NICHT WEITERLESEN!!! Wenn du diesen Text NICHT kopierst,

und

ihn in 7 anderen Videos einfügst, stirbst du innerhalb

von einem Jahr qualvoll! Tust du dies dagegen, dann wirst

du

in den nächsten 7 Tagen von etwas schönem

überrascht

[djkunk]

fixed bikes are so much better, however a tall fixed bike would be crazy awsome

[tim29000]

the only think better would be a fixed gear with square wheels.

[MobileSleepy]

Hobo, track, who cares, it's all fixed, it's all good. Personally, I wish those gorgeous frames would be "hobo", that way I'd score one cheap. 

Vid looks cool. Must... Purchase...

[christopher2077]

this is for lazy sneakerheads.its easy, and their air jordans are further off the ground than bmx or a skateboard, avoiding potential shoe damage. perfection!

[akisna]

stupid. try riding one of those before you talk. fixy riding is hardcore. it is a whole new culture. soon, this gonna be huge like skateboarding.

[almac4]

It's already a sport called velodrome racing, it's been around forever. And, it's not new, the first bikes ever made were fixed gear only.

[maggus1983]

Anyone got an URL to order the DVD, can't find anything

[rennauross]

lots of coasting in the intro, they're one-speed, but not fixie?

[nathanong87]

they are skidding...not coasting...

[yourmomscooch]

anyone know the name of this song?

[irideafixy]

kid you dont even know cause you could never ride a fixed cause its a mans bike

[egdoh]

Yea, whats with the 70's dad bikes????

[spleens07]

WTF??!!

ahahaha tricks on those hobo bikes BWAHA

some one give them a damn BMX!

[halomunkey]

dude you have no idea what the fuck your mocking so you should shut the hell up. You probably couldn't ride one of those for 2 seconds.

If it ain't fixed, it's broke.

[spleens07]

U shut the hell UP!

YEAH ur RIGHT im not good at doing tricks on a fricken speed bike HAHA FAGGOTS!

[halomunkey]

kids....

[speier]

it's not a "speed bike" you idiot. a track bike, with a fixed gear, with proper track dropouts can cost you up to 2 grand USD, they aren't "hobo bikes." fuck some people are ignorant.

[almac4]

sorry they are hobo bikes. Thats why I have one, good cheep solid transportation. NOw if you ride a real track bike on a velodrome track then you are riding a serious track bike, not what these dudes in the vid are riding.

[DriftPirateD]

Yeah, save for the guy hopping around on the FUCKING CARBON DISC WHEEL...

[yourmomscooch]

fixies are BMX bikes for big kids, my son

[topicalinjection]

we used to call em "big boy" bikes

[akisna]

the more you talk, the more we know that you are a stupid moron.

[eeehhhh]

awesome

[mikehazelnut]

Hey guys...this is awesome. I am trying to get to Carnival but I could not find it. I thought it was somewhere in the distant near of the FTC shop ??? Do somebody know the way from the FTC shop to Carnival and could possibly describe it ??? Thanks a lot.

[HawaiiIceMan]

[PriincessLaura123]

"If you did not copy this text into 10 others vid's comment, you'll die. That's true ! I didnt do it last time and see : I became a cute little bird with guitars instead of my eyes. Its really true !!!"

[mind9ame]

[bbbbrody]

It's the version from the Danse Macabre Remix CD.

[pledge88]

Are you sure the song is " Your Retro Career Melted by The Faint " ? I have the song but it doesn't sound like that .... ?

[jez135]

Where was this filmed? Looks like the Petronas towers.

[Psycode1ic]

at first i was like "why is this so interesting it just a couple guys on bikes...so pointless" then after about 1min it kinda picked up...the long intro isnt really necessary and kinda pointless if you're trying to show off skill. not bad though

[nanaluke]

Wicked stuff! i want a fixie road bike now!
