what do you prefer to see?
a well used fixie or a brand new clean one?
i prefer to see a well used fixie, since they looked like they have been well used. also it gives them a bit of character. i like seeing the battle scars and war wounds on them.

You're not like the other people here in the trailer park...
And I like to see both kinds of fixies. There's something nice about seeing a brand new, never been touched, one, but it's also nice to see a well-worn beater locked to a parking meter.
