*"Yes, I admit I drool over spindly keirin track bikes with miscroscopic clearances but do I **need one? Do you *need one? Is paying top dollar for the NJS stamp actually worth it just to hammer around town? Unless you are a total bellend you know that the answer is no, riding a fixed gear should not be about Ltd. Ed.’s, stamps or high priced NOS, it should be about riding a bike the way that your great great grandfather rode one, it should be about fun and simplicity and the pain of getting to the top of a big hill with only your own strength to thank at the top."
