It will be cool in 10-15 years to spot all the ex-hipster douches as they will all be walking with a cane at 30-40years old from shredding their knees on their ultra-cool fixies.

What a bunch of douches, although I will admit the bikes look kinda cool.

I pick up my neighborhood beaters for around 50 bucks on craigs, my current cruiser is an early nineties Nishiki Mtn bike complete with teal and purple accents...yeah baby.

something tells me those bikes cost more than my car.

My thoughts exactly. A lot of people up in this bitch give a shit about whether someone drops several grand on a bike or not. I don't even own one.

Ban this cretin!!#

There is something to be said for how a fixed gear will force you to develop a smoother pedaling style since you simply cannot stop. Due to this, they are somewhat popular for 'off season' training by serious road cyclists. Back in the day I only rode fixes from Thanksgiving to Feb 1.

yr handlebars are way higher than yr saddle :/

So you're saying you were into it before it was mainstream? Hipster alert!!!

JK, but no doubt the "braking" motion is extremely hard on the knee ligaments. Plus you were probably flat landing it for training, these young dumbasses are riding these around hilly terrain like Denver/SF everyday.

I don't think I am a hipster? We are talking late 80's Early 90's. And yes we were flat landing it, on County Rds. here in Iowa. It would help your spin and technique. In addition there was no need for speed during the off season. Plus in early spring we would do some Velodrome Racing in Chicago.

JK means just kidding...

You might be too old to get the hipster jokes, also we basically said the same thing regarding why they will have shredded knees and you and other serious cyclists won't.

That place looks alot like Jimmies Diner in Witchertee

That one pretty much fits me. He may be a little smaller than me.

I'm gonna go eat a donut now.
