OK, might be letting myself in for some abuse here, but what is the point in riding a fixed wheel bike for day to day use? :? I see them everywhere these days, normally ridden by skinny jeans wearing student types who I suspect are riding them for "effect" rather than any particular enjoyment or love of cycling. I thought they were for track use and perhaps hill climbs?
I understand the argument about simplicity, by why not have a singlespeed with a freewheel if it is so important to have 1 gear?
Isn't it a bit like riding a 9" travel DH rig to work and back every day?
Am I wrong? Have I missed something? Perhaps I'm just old and don't understand fashion. *zips up brown cardigan and tartan slippers*
