• New found comfort on this morning's commute, backpack replaced with handlebar bag, stem raised 10mm to cope, considering wider tyres, is this the beginning of the end?

  • I keep wanting to do this but every time i do I have another crash where I land on my backpack.

    After the latest accident I didn't have a scratch on me. Backpack is full of holes. That said it could have been the backpack that punched my clavicle into 4 bits... Hmmmmm..

  • So your backpack causes crashes?

  • I tend to land on my face so should be fine.

    I ride fixed on a relatively light steel track frame and was worried the bag would fudge the handling. TBH i barely noticed it but the benefits of no backpack/raised stem we're massive for commuting comfort.

    This has got #shitfixieskidderssay all over it
