no fifteen months ago i was pioneering the 'heelys' trend...brakeless of course

i moved onto the 'fixie' trend some time this morning, good isn't it!

Part of the bikes appeal is that it is compact and ideal for the city. It can take a lot more punishment than the track specific bikes.

As for looks most people love it or hate it. I know I'd hate a massive head tube a lot more. The bike is functional and is a pretty much do all fixed gear bike.

Oh and I think I heard somewhere that Austin 'Horse' was doing cyclo cross on his Gangsta. Try doing that on a Bob Jackson

You're SO out of touch! Fixed gear was declared dead this lunchtime!

well i was onto lo-pro by brunch, oh i can't keep track, i'm moving back to the micro scooter. i'll just hope and pray the masses follow so i wont be so lonely ricketing down the street. YES TAILWHIPS!

Completely off subject but...

Why don't Chris King make fucking track hubs? I'm so taken by the strong and pretty headset in my left hand.

very good question - i've been riding kings on my mtb's for years and they are truly superlative.

that was until i got a set of xtr's trade price from my mate at madison ---- off-topic, sorry

there's something about that 50cm gangsta that is not quite right?!?

needs a flat stem?

Wrong, Fixed Gear was declared dead about a month ago in the Sunday Times Style magazine. Was going to post it but copy got chucked out. Girlfriend *loved *showing that to me.

P.s. I really want a BMW.

"the boys allways give us a second look"

Photoben, I'll sell you Scott's BMW?

50p?

It's worth at least one pint?

Deal. Pint of Babycham for the lady?

The Gangsta, like all other BMW's is a great looking machine - compact geometry only looks wrong when the manafacturer tries to stick retro bits/paintjob to them. A sloping top tube on the right machine looks right.

Personally i love the way BMW are designed for purpose first, looks second which is actually what makes them look so good

Can I have these as well please?

Only if you drink the babycham out of them.

Have you ever drank Baileys from a shoe?

I went to BMW when I was in NYC this summer but got scared when I arrived so didn't go in!
Has anyone ever crossed the threshold into their building?

Looks like a shite load of fun to me!

How does the back sus function? The frame looks rigid on the pic.

Not for sale actually. He's keeping it.
