Fixie Fashion Fad Finally Finished

according to the Times it's now over for the fixed gear trendy wank bike.
the mainstream digging your 'scene' has polluted it's very essence with commercialism
your favourite fixie haunts of east london are crowded with hangers on and liggers desperate for a swig of your cheap lager and a knowing nod of respect for their NJS imported toe strap.
No longer will clown bikes be seen twiddling down the city streets, they are ephemeral like pogo-sticks, leg warmers and yesterdays papers.

it's OVER.

(it must be true i read it on the internet somewhere)

How very insightful.

Thank fuck.

Also neatly cocking a snoot at Alice Fisher.

'Hammered fenders' only £70 a pair.

what a non starter of an article. he could have saved that valuable internet space and written "i ride fiked"

are you still banging on about "fixie skidders"....

Truth be told, Western Union bike messengers were zipping about 5th Avenue in the 1890s bike boom, but they wore bow ties and moustaches so I guess the scene didn’t take off...

It fncking should. Where can I buy a bow tie?

"The craze for fixed-gear riding — pedals in direct connection with the rear wheel because there is no freewheel — must be peaking in London"

But I think I'll write just one more article on it just in case anyone had forgotten about it....

are you still banging on about "fixie skidders"....

are you still 'fixie skidding'

allways.

It's Sunday Times, innit. Done 3 weeks of 'the scene', time for it to be over.

I get all my fashion tips from the Sunday Times. I'm putting my bike in the bin.

No you need to put a massive 'custom steel rack' on the front.

A 'custom steel rack' is actually the new fashion craze in the cosmetic surgery scene.

I'm glad it's over. It was hard work being the epitome of urban cool.

You'll be in it this weekend on some list thing, won't you?

"When everyone — including the columnists AA Gill (who rides a US import in neatly turned-up jeans) and Will Self (fixed, ridden in flattering black) — is riding fixed or single-speed, it can’t be cool any longer. Those guys are middle-aged."

Cheeky twat

I am 'middle aged'

I feel only cunty vibes from him. I could be wrong but I feel it in my womb and that's usually a good sign I'm right.

As in all cases of celebrity, they are probably very pleasant in real life.

Self is a great writer, love his prose and his vile temper when it goes.
so much better than this talentless spineless puppets that are out there spouting their opinions
