• A full-size fixed bike may not be as good for tricks as a smaller bike, but it's a better compromise between covering distance and acrobatics.

    Fixed trick bicycles - for tricksters who live far away from the tricks.

  • maybe because track cycling is less controversial than trick cycling. Track cycling is just racing, whereas doing tricks is pretty much just to impress people, so it's bound to garner a difference in opinions.

    and whats so bad about it?

  • And what is so bad about it, I ask?

  • Do you actually know what are you arguing about?

  • edit: oops

    edit edit: was meant for an earlier post

  • No, that was a good metaphor, Zoidberg.

    nowadays 90% of the fixed "scene" no matter what bike you have is to impress.

  • And the other 180% to get to work/college and back.

  • nowadays 90% of the fixed "scene" no matter what bike you have is to impress.

    if by impress you mean you want people to think "that's a nice bike" then yes. But it's different from "look what I can do".

  • I mean, what offends people is bad attitude, not matching deep vs.

    You don't need to be "street" only because you ride on one.
    You don't need to be "gangsta" only because you tend to have fun on your bike in a group of mates.
    You don't need to fucking write text speak like a retard only because you are under 25.
    You don't need to throw gang signs. Ok, Ed and Lileth can.

  • if by impress you mean you want people to think "that's a nice bike" then yes. But it's different from "look what I can do".

    and what about alleycats, track videos with dudes riding extremely fast and dangerous between cars and shit isnt that "look what I can do"?

    i mean i dont give a shit what youre doing with your bike, im having fun with all of mines, im riding my track bikes on the street and trying to build one only for the track and im too old to get a bmx and my back is wrecked cause of my job, i just wanna trick a little bit for myself, dude im never gonna impress kids doing tailwhips and stuff at the skate park where i ride, but im doing "far away from tricks"and riding with them anyway, even if they use the word "sir" while talking to me ;)

    im not here to argue, i just cant understand all of that shittalking bout other bikes because theyre not the bikes "i ride"

  • and what about alleycats, track videos with dudes riding extremely fast and dangerous between cars and shit isnt that "look what I can do"?

    yes and I hold them in the same regard.

  • and you won't get shit just for riding a bike, you only get shit if you act like a prick and take yourself too seriously.

  • and what about alleycats, track videos with dudes riding extremely fast and dangerous between cars and shit isnt that "look what I can do"?

    Same shit, ain't it.
    Hope you've seen it - we all inevitably look like dicks when we take ourselves too seriously.

    I don't think that's true. Do you really think people aren't doing it to have fun, too?

  • shittalking bout other bikes because theyre not the bikes "i ride"

    Jakub, you will find out most regulars on here have all sorts of bikes.

  • I don't think that's true. Do you really think people aren't doing it to have fun, too?

    YouTube - Murphy-Futterman Quartet, Avant-Garde freestyle jazz !

    (yes, I'm a "trained" jazz musician and still can't listen to many improvs did by others).

  • Jakub, you will find out most regulars on here have all sorts of bikes.

    haha my mind was faster than my eyes while reading this and i was pretty sure that it said "...most regulars are pricks" ;)

    ok i get it, most of the "tricksters" are pricks! :D

  • And a failure to clip out, jump into the flowerbed, smashing glasses etc.

    I think Xander knows about falling into plant pots.

    that only happened once ok!

  • haha my mind was faster than my eyes while reading this and i was pretty sure that it said "...most regulars are pricks" ;)

    Not really.
    It's just some tricksters with attitude (TWA) are more prone to don the pack mentality than other riders. Simply because "trick scene" was always more hipity-hopity urban than then the cycling in circles circuit.

  • put thread on ignore?

  • No, the people that take themselves too seriously get offended and flounce.

    or get offended about something that someone wrote on an internet forum and then gang rape their face.
