on second thought.

who gives a fuck

if you're about to hit something you lurch your head over the front wheel and jam a foot into the front fork, dont need brakes to stop quickly and dismount your bike.

And is that a good thing?

that sounds well unsafe like, don't like the idea of breaking an ankle just to stop a bike

well why the fuck would you run into something in the first place?

long shot here but by accident perhaps?

then you shouldn't be riding a fixie if you are a scared wanker of getting hurt. accidents happen all the time with any kind of bicycle. also, he came with a statement sounding like he wanted to test the breaks. anyways who cares really? it's just a bike. don't hate da game hate da playa

wat he was replying to me asking how you stop a bike with no brakes sort it out

fixies are shit, i don't care how reliable and efficient they are.

i want GEARS! i live in a city with hills, loads of em, all over the place. stick your fix gear up your arse.

I've got a mate who rides a fixed gear in Nottingham, but then he spends his weekends time trialling around the Peak District on his roadie so he probably has calves like tree trunks.

But yeah, personally I quite want one for banging around east anglia on, but I definitely wouldn't if I lived somewhere like Sheffield.

Pedal slowly.

Fixe Gears are fucking annoying when going down hills, single speed is much more enjoyable
