^^^wtf is wrong with you bikedirect fanbois? your evangelical zeal is getting out of hand...bikeshopwarehouse is just another of the many alternative sites operated by bd.

the op clearly does not know anything about bikes & yet you recommend that he buy another mail order bike? from the same parent company that shafted him by sending a female bike that is not shown in the listing? the bike he got is the traffic 5.0 gtw, which is the wsd version of traffic 5.0.

k21rr...is the link you provided for the bike you ordered accurate? are you sure that is the one you ordered? if so, raise a stink with bikeshopwarehouse about receiving the wrong bike. you did not purchase a women's bike - demand they take it back.

then go shopping locally & find a fully assembled bike that you can look at in person & test ride before buying. after you learn something about "fixies" you might consider buying a bike online.

good luck...
