No brakes and brag about the superior stopping of no brakes, sure why not? No one said that all bicycle riders are geniuses, so if some like wacky stuff, and like to praise it as the greatest thing since vulcanized rubber, good for them. No one is forcing me to ride a bike with such limitations.
I don't think anyone has praised fixed brakeless bikes for their stopping power, or at least no one intelligent.
It's very obvious you view them as lesser individuals with the tone of your post and just want to feel superior/tell these kids to get off your lawn so have at it. I'll still be having my fun riding my bike.
