I had a guy stop me last night...

jonaent (Jon) It's not that I don't like the fact that it's popular..... but at the shop we are getting an awful lot of city/rich w**kers who have never ridden fixed before buying the most expensive builds and parts for expensive frames from elsewhere, all because it's cool, or poular, or the thing to be doing..... At first it was Shoreditch types, now, it's city boys..... I know which one i'd rather ride with!.... actually I'm not sure

Which is exactly the attitude I got last time I went to Brick Lane Bikes. Like I was being judged, presumed to be a hipster or something. Never mind the fact that a customer is a customer, a person a person and you're not inherently a wanker for being wealthy or working in the city. Did they all explain that their reasons for buying the bike were because "it's cool, or poular, or the thing to be doing"? Or were you just being elitest?
