Why do people keep calling fixed gear bikes a flash in the pan?
My nextdoor neighbor (who kind took delivery of my fixed wheel bike) told me a story about how he used to race them when he was a boy! He looked at my bike and told me about cycle moterXcross and how the bikes where the same except his bike had one peddle...
He said "they used to think it would not last long back then so i'm happy to see your still riding them"
