True, true.

Also - coaster brake - great fun skidding around like you are eight years old.

Someone on BF sold him a bike.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. He is a fucking legd. Riding fix just got that little bit cooler.

Alfred Jarry used to ride fixed. Apparently he used to carry a loaded pistol and fire it at buildings as he rode around.

what a G!

Crazy loose chain though. Even under pressure!

Maybe he's trackstanding.

no brakes as well!

ummmmm.
The coaster brake bike- is that designed to allow you to look like a 'cool' fixed gear fakenger, but without any of that trifling difficulty of actually riding a fixed gear?

The new brakes/no brakes, helmet/no helmet, carbon/steel can of worms is........

Gun/No gun.

Eric Clapton has a sick old Cinelli Pista, but I can't find a picture at the moment.

eyebrows ummmmm.

Or maybe to be a simple, low maintenance city bike?

Is this also for those who want to look like a 'cool' fixed gear fakenger?

i don't think coaster brakes existed in the 1800s

i meant on owen wilsons sleek bike:

There is no way that this geometry, etc. is not designed to mimic the fixed gear look
It has track ends as well

in that sense BMX's is supposed to mimic the fixed look? they use backward facing dropouts. a lot of SS mtbs are the same, it's just makes much more sense because chain tension is important on both fixed and SS.

i agree. looks more like a bmx, surely (gusset, bars etc).

Or rather- fixed is trying to emulate BMX?

the very first bicycles are fixed, BMX came out much later. and it's not about emulating each other it's just for practicality's sake.
