"Fixed wheel riding has exploded in the UK and the daily commute is seeing more and more cyclists ditching gears in favour of the fixed wheel bike option. Cycle messengers have traditionally adopted track bikes and modified road bikes for their daily dashes across cities delivery parcels and letters, but low prices and street-cred has been followed by an increase in young urban twentysomethings adopting fixed as a means of transport."
