Riding fixed with brakes is fine, people may make their own choice.

You choose not to, I choose not to but can tell you MANY people ride harder than both of us with a brake.

Using condoms is fine, people may make their own choice.

Riding Fixed with brakes is like wearing Condoms,

it just numbs the experience...
And not wearing one makes your cock fall off.

Condoms? Brakes? What?

I confess thread >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

^^ Even for riding brakeless that'd need to be an awfully unlucky accident. You've got me imagining elaborate crash scenarios now, involving the spiky tops of iron fences.

oh shit moments thread >>

Do you reckon I could be this XXXtreme if I took the brake off my bike?

One man in complete harmony with his bike...at 12mph through suburbia.

What does how hard you ride your fixiebiek have to do with anything? :D
With running the risk of sounding like andy and the clearance debacle, breaks on a track bike are out of place and yes it ruins the experience.

Not that my word has any sway since I currently ride neither option

Pretty sure it's a Miche wheelset, which has a braking surface, although it does look suspiciously like there isn't one...

that's the pistard wheelset, no brake surface, not to say you can't though it just won't work as well. you might be thinking of the x-press wheels?

You sure? Look like they have a brake surface here, just anodised over

^ i just bought a used aksium front wheel to fit a front brake as pistards dont have braking surface

Dose any one know where i could get these style toe clips in the UK? single strap with 2 holes and metal.

I have been searching around with not much luck, apart from paying a loads to get them posted from America.

I was trying to get down to a level he'd understand me.

Brakes are out of place on a track bike but a fixedgear does not always equal a track bike, what if you ride a fixedgear mountain bike or a fixedgear road bike?

I have my brakeless commuter and my training bike that has a brake, I use this for longer road rides not as a track bike but as a fixed wheel road bike.

Couldn't you just run a single strap through double straps ones?

those are all singlespeed bikes man :D a mountainbike is not a mountainbike without a big block that helps you get up thats the whole point of it. If you ride a singlespeed up a mountain you are not a mountainfred you are just trying to get vimeo rep

Yes i could, but would look a bit nicer with those ^ that's all.

Or you just like riding single speed?

Well all track bikes are singlespeed too so what's your point?

My point is that I ride a fixedgear bike off road, I don't have a brake but that doesn't make it a track bike, it has wide tyres and wide risers.

are you just angry at him because you are not getting a 'dale?

Don't think i posted this, made a few changes to my beater, i call it Frankenstein.

What about a fixed gear touring bike without brakes?

I suppose you could classify all of the above as identity seeking
