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.

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.
