Agreed. But unlike razors, fixies have been around a lot longer than the fad, and they will still be around when the fad fades.
New Black Market project??

Right, that's why I said in 'mainstream form'. I remember going to SF when I was young and seeing dudes on fixed gears mashing hills. Now-a-days you see a lot more of them all over the place.
Regardless, I give props to fixed gear riders. They do stupid **** I would never do.
i just picked up a subrosa malum fixed on dans. gets here tomorrow. hoping it will be a fun commuter.
There is a need for these types of bikes, so BM fills that need with a quality frame. What is the big deal? If they make enough $$ to keep the DJ line going, then all is good. If 2011 rolls around and all they have is fixie frames, well, then that is a different story.
I am not a fan if fixies but I don't really care if BM makes them. As long as they maintain what got them where they are.

It might be easier to scam fixie riders
fixed is fun, a bike like this is awesome cuz you can haul ass from place to place and still hop curbs. im not into the freestyle part but its nice to have a bombproof bmx-like bike that can get you places.
that's hilarious
To each his/her own. I have my old xc frame that I made into a commuter bike, she's strong and has mostly bmx parts so it almost fit the description you have. I rip around just fine, sounds like you reserve your freestyling to your bmx bike like I do.
yaa, im not eloquent, and? if your gay acting, or gay looking and your riding bmx or mtbmx, your probably gonna get razzed a bit, so get used to it and go get a mani pedi and listen to some phoenix or something....
Brooklyn's kinda threatening to do the same thing a bit. But like someone else said, if they can sell fixed gears to pay the bills to put out the other rad bikes they make, I'm totally okay with it.
Take your ignorance elsewhere. May I suggest...
I'm not going to take part in the fixie debate as time has proved these never lead to anything and most times end in tears..
..but I just wanted to add blk mrkt should've chosen the name a bit more carefully as NSF already exists in the form of a crew of English street bmx'ers and their bmx shop and series of videos

I think this one stands for 'nother shltty fixie. 
Those guys in england should start a gang war.

Hahaha, tears? Really? I guess maybe the emo-hipster set would probably cry if someone called them out for jumping on the trendwagon...and it would be pretty funny to see the eye makeup run as they walked away crying with the bike they don't know how to ride...
And anyway I though NSF was N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor, also known as N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion proteins, the enzyme.
how often are these fixie stunt riders getting flats and tacoing wheels?
not often, cuz they're going so slow and low.
As far as i can tell you guys sound like a bunch of bmxers talking about mtb!
All of you know that when mtb started there where people in outher blogs talking sh*t about it as well.. If you guys would look into something befor you start to slam it you might have seen that all fixed freestyle is heading to bmx and mtb style. Evey thing we use is made by your way cool companys!
and by you saying that the companys selling fixed to pay the bills and stay in bussness is cool. what dose that have to say about the companys? and as far as making fun of the rims and tires. We use mtb rims and tires. 29er sun rims and 2.2 tires all day son! Bottem line is every thing new is consitered a trend by people who dont know what the h3ll there talking about. Dont forget where mtb came from. So get off your computers and get on your bikes! And if your at work killing time like me look up (wrahw) and look at some edits of what fixed gear is turning in to and you will see what im talking about. besides if im rite the first bike was some kind of fixed geared bike any way. Food for thought. Dont get mad and think im cracking on mtb or bmx cause im not...
