i have to admit the single gear bike is growing on me, and my bmx cruiser isnt the best for long distance riding. im gonna have to cop a new bike after i get a new 13'' macbook pro.

no shit.....i bought one not too long ago and kept if for about 3 days. That was enough nostalgia for me.

yeah, they do look cool, and it would be lot more fun if there were real trails, but for riding on concrete for long periods of time its not the best.

I love it! I am looking for one just like that. Lightweight and fast for the road, but still cool for hanging out with the street bikers. I need like a 42" frame cause I'm small, though. Don't know if I'll convert to fixed gear, but definitely gotta have bucket pedals and maybe three gears for me.

i like my bike. its an old schwinn cruiser i got for $10 at a garage sale. take it to the bike shop for maintenance like once a year. single speed. great for campouts, barhops, lazy sundays.

fun bike crews in richardson & oak cliff. in bishop arts you get a discount at many shops that have the "bike friendly" sticker in the window.

bike + train = screw that car payment

They should offer that madison in all chrome

I'm not a hipster, I just crush a lot.

What's the advantage of a fixed gear bike over an adult or big boy bike?

Liking the color scheme.

Had a Schwinn many years ago, lost it when I moved to Dallas.

I think it was the "cruiser" type, older model. Was such a smooth ride.

I mean if i had extra money i'd get a road bike too, a classic scwhinn, but only after getting a new mountain bike.

Im with ya, road bikes are tempting simply because I want that speed, but I love going the upbeaten path, stepping far off the pavement.

Plus I dont exactly want to be one of those dead roadies....RIP to them.
