There's one at my LBS. I know exactly what it is and I've done plenty of fixie miles. Rip are you taking up track racing?

 

[H8R]

???




No one rides those on tracks!

They are for bar-hopping and coffee runs in San Francisco. Everyone knows that.

 

[Potroast88]

I'm thinking about getting one and flipping the bars up so I can ride wheelies.

I for one am glad you get a new bike, Rip.

 

[splat]

WHY ?????

I think just starting out with a regular road bike would be a good start. a real track bike like that is terrible harsh ride on Anything but satin smooth surface. but enjoy.

I commuted to school on a fixer for 6 months. I gained 10 lbs of leg muscle. It's a scary fun way to ride. Nice bike Opeth.

He doesn't have it yet. Give the guy a break. He started one of the best threads in history. He deserves a little respect.

Did you weigh each one before and after?

A friend had Schwinn track bike in VA when I was 13-14. Was that ever a scary bitch coming down the hill in our neighborhood.

 

[HRDTLBRO]

You should see the track bike in my living room right now. A 56cm Surly steamroller with steamroller fork, king headset, fsa pro bmx carbon cranks and Ti bb, Paul hubs laced to Salsa rims, On-one bull horn bars, stem, and seatpost. It's fast and fun as hell.

The only reason I didn't put five stars is becuase it's a Bianchi Pista. :love:

 

[elRey]

-Rep for all the haters.

 

[maxyedor]

I want a fixie again. Nothing is as scary as coming down california st. in traffic, avoiding cable car tracks, all while not being able to slow down. It's f'in GREAT!

California St., like the one here in Ventura? that is a fun hill to bomb on a skateboard.

 

[w00dy]

Did you weigh each one before and after?

Haha, nah. I just assumed that's where the extra weight was going because my thighs started rubbing together when I walked.

I know what comes next, hold the fat jokes please.

 

[kindtrails]

If its got wheels and pedals- I think it is cool! It's better than mine (road bike or fixie )

 

[JRB]

california st in SF.

Holy cripes.
