can't believe I'm replying to this. this is the worst idea I've ever had.
wouldn't it be nice if it was a bit less male dominated? or do you not like girls and bikes? oh wait, you do. but only with no clothes on. OK.
it's just kinda lame. I've met quite a few girls who used to post on this forum who don't anymore because they're fed up with the lame sexist bullshit all the time. I imagine they don't bother telling the men that, because you get the magnificent 'yeah but you're just jealous' (yeah cos we don't see pictures of naked women all the fucking time) or 'stop being such a man-hating feminist lunatic' (my personal favourite).
SO in conclusion: tags are probably not just people having a laugh. (it wasn't me by the way, I don't know how you add tags.)
hanyway I have the thread on ignore, so whatever; it was just brought to my attention that someone was taking a revolutionary stand so I thought I'd rock up and talk some feminism at you.
But I love you all, you sexist bastards.
will you be my girlfriend?

I ride a single speed freewheel btw and he rides fixed with a front brake.
-
When I brake I use both brakes but shift my weight backwards over the rear of the bike so I get more purchase with my rear wheel. I find this slows me down alot faster than letting my rear wheel nearly lift off the ground and making the front do all the work.
I posted the question originally cos a car pulled out on me and a mate (who rides a fixie) while we were riding and chatting side by side (stupid i know...), I broke and stopped with time to spare but he didnt make it and 'skid stopped/face planted' straight into the side of the car. He was alright but I was surprised with how long it took him to stop cos he s a very experienced rider.
I thought maybe the damp weather affected things. Thanks for the replies and info.

Can fixed gear bikes stop as fast as a bike with two brakes?

Yeah, nice idea. I might add a spare lock to the one I pass on my way to work everyday. A nod to the thieving that goes on in this town.
