in the areas i live, cornwell et kent, fixed has never really been fashionable. infact the only people you see are old guys on geared roadbikes in team lycra, and old guys on MTBs commuting. theres a few exceptions in falmouth becuase its a student town, but even then i only ever saw one guy on fixed.
london on the other hand is completely diffrent, and theyre everywhere. but theres also alot more bling bikes going around london as people are obviosuly more image conscious, and have more disposable income to blow on carbon wheels and risers.
it being fashionable doesnt really effect my life becuase within my areas and social groups, im the weirdo who rides bikes everywhere. i do wish i had more people to ride with though.
