It's not about joining any sort of Fixie elite, it's about common sense. How much was your unipack? How much are you spending on top because of shit components? They're not a bit shit, they are 100% dire. My only experience with them was from what I heard on here, but I saw someone holding their crank arm in their hand the other day. I stopped to see if he was alright, turns out he bought his Create Unipack 2 days earlier. £100/day is clearly well worth it.
For £200 you can get a much better bike. When I say better I don't mean it's got more style points, I mean it's stronger, probably lighter, and more reliable.
For £50 then perhaps it would fall into the category, "it's a bike, I get to ride it, I have a good time, that's all that matters." Not at £200.
heard it all before people slagging off unipaks because they are cheap... there not death traps i ride mine with no brakes and ride it hard and have no problems... matter of fact i ride a create unipak and im happy with it call me a novice all you want im happy with it and had no problems... but still would prefere a charge =p

I see so many of these bikes its almost getting to the point that i dont mind them anymore... i kinda have this warm glowing feeling inside that says fair play to them, one less car and all that.
I saw 2 today as i was going over Lbridge and gave a little smile, as to say you get it dont yer!
can i just say i ride a unipak and i know a fair bit about fixed gears... i ride it hard everyday and had no problems.... i baught one because i really wanted a fixed and was doing my exams and did not have the time to make my own bike... what unipak are doing though is really spreading fixed gear riding... and i am proud to own one even if it is a cheap bike it works for me and i can always change the shit parts like crank and front spokes
get A strobe light to take the piss
