re: "fixie". someone who quite happily says "fixie" would be pretentious as fuck to start saying "fixed gear bike" after being chided by the pedants on here. Work that one out.
I don't understand this little poo so many people on here do when anyone says "fixie". Go back through the old threads, many early people were happily bandying the term around. And they still use it in the States unselfconsciously - that's right, The States, home of the original fixie..
