Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

You'd better watch out of the GO BOMB FIXIE TEAM!

What is it with bandannas?

I used to ride at Brentwood skatepark and one day a group of 14 and 15 year olds turned up all sporting bandannas. I think they were trying to go for the cowboy/highway bandito look but ended up looking like they were wearing neckerchiefs.

did the purple guy spend all his money on his wheels and just went bargain bin diving for everything else? at least he has foot retention...

That looks a lot like the chainset from a unipack on that purple bike

The stem is stupidly low, I know it's design to give a lower position, but not that much!

Er, it's not quite right but anti-porn. Really? Good lord.

For looking rad:

really don't get this bright colour powder coating business, surely the original colour/sticker combo would look so much better and save about £70?!

the kidrobot one is nice tho ?

It took me a while to even spot the bandana (the seatpost right?) I was thinking, whats with the handbags?

And the rocky coastal scene (not a typical fixie skidder habitat)

And the baggy clothed hip-hop street look (at odds with skinny, scruffy messenger look)

I cant imagine the these guys enjoying cruising around really slowly on their no braks bikes, getting nuff respect from their bros for their strange gay coloured bicycle which does not freewheel.

You'd better watch out of the GO BOMB FIXIE TEAM!

**TEAM MOTTO
**

GO BOMB! is a founding fixie team in south east kent. The team hold high morals to the fact fixies should be 'Built not Brought'
Fucking Kent! I thought they would be from somewhere like Iceland.

They can't even get the right word in their motto. It's Built not Bought, rather than Built not Brought. What would that even mean? I built this, but I have to leave it at home because our motto dictates I'm not allowed to bring it anywhere. Are you bringing your new bike tomorrow night? No, I don't bring shit, I build.

Looks like they build shit too

So they founded fixed riding in SE Kent did they? I wonder what these riders were using for transmission in 1932

Nice.

I read it as they founded a "fixie team", presumably as one of the original "fixie teams" in a whole society of "fixie teams" in Kent.
Nurse- It takes years of training to get a with this razor sharp.

Given their tenuous grasp of English, it's hard to know exactly what they meant. It just amuses me that all these twelve year olds think they invented riding fixed on the road, when people have been doing it continuously for sport, leisure and utility since the invention of the safety bicycle. I thought I was late to the party because I didn't ride a fixed wheel bike on the road until about 1980.

It's street, innit? Aks your fam.

...I thought I was late to the party because I didn't ride a fixed wheel bike on the road until about 1980...

wow, i never knew O.L.D. in bicycle hub descriptions stand for mdcc_tester's age...
:))

My fam's average age is about 50. They agree with me.

i am going to give up riding fixie's because of this.
