What a gent

Posted on
  • Just had a random chat with a guy in a street in Kensington who let me try out his brakeless fixie. What a gent!

    Now I've tried it and realised that I might not kill myself on a breakless fixed wheel bike I might have to stop lotering here and actually get one. So, if you were that guy, thanks very much.

  • I think it was Teenslain

  • Definitely Pisti, he said the 'gent' didn't try to kill him... can't be Slain.

  • I might not kill myself on a breakless fixed wheel bike

    Nah, you'll probably just get maimed or put in a coma.

  • You might want to get a front brake.

  • don't ride with no brakes, there's really no excuse.

  • Young dreams: so swiftly born and so swiftly crushed.

  • Please ask yourself why you'd want to ride without a brake.

    If the answer is anything but:
    1) I will be riding it exclusively on a track that doesn't allow brakes

    then please think again about your safety before anything else.

  • A track bike with no brakes is meant for the track.

    Not for riding on the roads.

  • it can't have been pisti, he would have yentz him.

  • ha ha

    (you're now pregnant)

  • he probably let you try it because he thought you would hurt yourself on it rather than steal it.
    I ride brakless, can't really recommend it, I'm just cheap/lazy.

  • then please think again about your safety before anything else.

    Or even better think about other people's safety too.

  • it can't have been pisti, he would have yentz him.

  • Hhhmmmm, Gentlemen. We don't have them up North.
