Stepper - 'cause even your granny's got a fixie... WAC

Own product confidence FAIL, bought to you by their own hipsterish twitter account.

May have just broken a laptop, drooling over the Charge Scissor. How much longer will the public have to wait..?

They even do a "Magic Fixie" model - clearly even though everybodys gran has one, its still essential to have a fixie skidder in your range

I may be missing something but without some form of foor retention, isn't a fixed version of the stepper-bike a tad short of braking power. I realise it has a disc brake on the front but it doesn't seem to have any decent way of retarding the back wheel. Is flail like a cunt and crash going to be the new do a skid?

It isn't fixed.

Looks like a disc hub with a cog bolted on and a single-speed converted on the free-side.
Affectation only.

SS with only front brake...

mate, it got a back brake doesn't it?

what self respecting fixxie skidder would pull the back brake?

Doesn't go very fast.

Fixie-pumper.

Indeed, look at Segway.

I rest my case.

edit; actually having thought about it, it's somewhat better than a segway since you're getting some kind of exercise, somewhat better.

Hahaha (drum roll) mall cops to the rescue,I remeber before this piece of crap came out it had the code name "ginger" I think and they built so much hype round it, they literally marketed it as the most revolutionary thing since the wheel was invented. WAC

SS with only front brake...

So not actually fixed and riding like a cunt. This fucker needs to be hung upside down and drubbed until his ankles bleed.

' cause even your granny knows these are utter gash'

I'd love a Segway... What's the beef, you bozos?

+1

The model name is 'Magic Fixie'

Hah just seen one of these steppers around the 'i just walk my bike and look cool lane' full on hhsb, black h+ son on the back, magenta anodised deep v front, and golden parts all over! looked gangsta, now i know what i want for christmas from daddy

segways are a COMPLETELY different kettle of fish. They are technologically awesome.

that first page sounds like it was written by cock.

Having seen a few people 'riding' these, the fact that it's impossible not to look like a complete dick whilst doing so does somewhat negate their attempt to corner the cool market. Pathetic little oh-dear-where-do-I-put-my-feet wobbles at traffic lights aren't the height of style.

The Times was all over this in August - Full video review as well...

That's OK, I'm just writing a scientifically sound article on how newpapers kill more people than terrorists and fuffy bunnies combined.

Well....of course they do.

i just cant get over the fact that the 'concept store' for these is in new cross. FAIL FAIL FAIL. They should be aiming at the micro scooter demographic.
