Is this the ABSOLUTE HIPSTER?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Is this the ABSOLUTE HIPSTER?

i posted this on craigslist to make fun of the countless Fixie ads.

"Trendy Fixie! Not Dead Yet! - $400

i have a trendy fixie. colorful bicycle. sweet french toe straps. hemp brake cables, just kidding: there are no brakes.


im 5' 9" but this bike will fit good for someone between 5' 5" to 6'2"
absurdly flamboyant neon coloured wheels.

sweet paisley grips with authentic david bowie pictures.

sailor moon cards in spokes.

BRIGHT CHAIN!

so many barspins possible with this bike!

velo saddle. i will throw in a BROWN SWEATER!!! if you buy it today.

PISTA drop bars! chrome! shiny! reflective!

and the best part is, THIS BIKE WILL NEVER GO IN THE VELODROME!

comes with Wayfarer style glasses (lenses optional)

this bike rides great if you wear corduroy or denim knickers (you see that? im so hip i dont even wear pants! i wear knickers!)

this bike is a peugeot. or schwinn varsity. and from bikes direct... or maybe a bianchi pista. who cares?



IT HAS LEATHER TOE STRAPS!

has one deep v aerospoke! "

well, someone asked me if it was my bike was available. i thought they were referencing a jamis i was selling, so i sent them a link. they asked about the fixie. i knew that they were joking, so i sent them these links







well...this person gave me their home and cell number, said they were out of school this week, and could come by and buy it asap.

ABSOLUTE HIPSTER? seems too fantastical, must be a joke, right?
