Am I missing sommit, looks like a bike to me, looks like a good bike, in racing green, and why you all saying £400 is cheap? I am looking to buy me a single speed with the option of fixie and Iam pretty gutted at the prices of them, if I paid £400 for the Langster and some bugger said "hey, thats cheap" I would twat em one. When I was a kid (now aged 40), we all cut our teeth on our Dads single/fixed geared steal racing bikes, we would kind of inherit them, put great big cow bars on em and spend all day doing wheelies up and down the street trashing the wheels etc, it cost us bugger all bar the odd slap around the ear, see that Plug Freestyler, looks like what we used to make-up ourselves so we could trash it (apart from the fancy wheels), £400, I think the manufacturers are trying to market DIY street stuff, idiots, and all these fixie diehards who turn their noses up at folk on Langsters etc are also idiots, fixed gear has been around for a long time now, alot longer than these snobby eejits, you make use of what you got and what you like, and if some 20 year old twat headed courier calls me a poser or a wobbler on my (soon to come, off the peg via evans cycle to work scheme) fixie, Iam gonna ram me bike pump down his throat and slot me bicycle trouser clips around his neck, whilst remembering not to stop pedalling!
