fixed freestyle, or '770cmx' (pukes on cock), is flawed to fuck. take away the fixed wheel and what else is there? big, janky, weak as shit wheels? Every step taken to make fixed freestyle work (wider tyres, more spokes, stronger forks, high riser bars, flat pedals etc.) is a step towards... well... a BMX bike. It shouldn't be any more than a novelty clip at the end of a BMX video while the credits roll. Like standing up on a boogie-board or skiing on grass.
Just my opinion of course! I'm just bored of this inward-looking, internet-hyped, forced bullshit. I realise everyone desperately wants it to be the next big thing so that they can say they were there when it all started, but FFS it's nothing but a deformed hybrid.
Please excuse all the swear words and spite.
look, there's nothing wrong with purposefully limiting yourself so that you can't ride as good as you possibly could! if people want to keep on struggling to do small, wobbly tricks because they're constantly forced to pedal, then let them be! who cares if they're denying themselves the ability to do bigger, better tricks?!!!!1 after all, its best to make things as difficult as possible, for yourself, because it's cool.
