This is what happens when you mistake your bicycle for some kind of tired subcultural fashion statement (that's already been co-opted by corporate America).

They're called track bikes for a reason.

"Tyler's gonna ride around this sign backwards-OH!"

lovely.

[DestroyTheseWalls]

thats what you get for riding a fixie you douche! lulz im talking about hipsters XD

[mattdrummer620]

@mahmoud1995 maybe going forward not on a fixie... its alot harder in the context of what hes doing

@gezelligtexas

Thank you. Even worse is the corporate ghettofication of the FIXIE scene. Since when did homeboys and graffiti have anything to do with track bikes? Next thing you know wee man is getting robbed by the gangsters because he has begged his mom for a purple OBEY bike with BANKSY aerospokes. Fixie's are fucking yo yo's a fashion accessory to display the paradox of your uniform individuality.

[mahmoud1995]

Wow you must suck at riding... I go clipless for most things and if I fuck up I land on the falling foot...

[KimmyjimmyD]

Hahahahahahahahhahah

[QWILDER]

Hard not to laugh...

@gezelligtexas dude, give it a rest. A bikes a bike. People have been doing stuff like this before the hipster subculture.. You act like it just came out of nowhere.

@colin340 WHOOSH!

[colin340]

@gezelligtexas dude bikes are fun chillll



[xbuttfacex]

@monsieurrapha well it's the same thing with clothes man. some people wear clothes mainly for comfort or utility, but some people use them as a fashion statement. just wear your own clothes and let other people do the same. i mean every time i see a bike, even some kid on a bmx bike in suburbia, it's still better than another car on the road

Pretty bad for the tendons in the ankles unless you use hand brakes

[EVOASSHOLE]

Feels good! Fixed gear! Try it and shutup! If u dont like it you probably just havent found your ideal gear and bike fitted just for u.

Would a fixie rider let other people ride their own fixie? I just wouldnt... Same with my motorbike.

[harveydog2006]

dude

[walter0bz]

fixed = training to pedal consistently so I hear, and minimal mechanical components = good for maintainance.

[sebo2001]

hehehe I have to get myself fixie

[sh4ne]

@gezelligtexas you're just mad because you're tyler huh?

[melodydae]

@gezelligtexas you are right! just because they are called track bikes, means that you can only ride them on a track, and nowhere else! Fucking track bike fags, trying to ride their bikes backwards. God damn corporate america. Fucking subcultural fashion.

[slickkapone]

THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I WOULD ATTEMPT TO RIDE BACKWARDS WITH CLIPLESS PEDALS, lol....sorry about the all caps....

[feasterbailey2]

@drsquirrel0 you just explained my whole bike lol

[drsquirrel0]

@monsieurrapha Look at many professionals that use fixed gearing for TT and other events.

Im sure they're all being ponses and "behind the times". *rolleyes*

Not everyone on a fixed bike does tricks, has a bright green frame with yello wheels or insists on producing a nice set of skid patches on their tyres.

Don't assume that fixed = poser.

[drsquirrel0]

@rawe9113 Tip, bend your knee in towards the frame... angle foot out.

[drsquirrel0]

@gezelligtexas "Track bikes" cannot have brakes, this one does.

Fixed single speed is a choice.

The fact that you use this gearing on a track is just because the track wont allow you to run other gear.

And tbh this bike doesn't look like a fashion statment bike.

"he's gonna ride this sign backwards" erm No he not :D
