If you go look at the reviews they all good. I love mine I only paid 160 cause a guy bought it and never road it, he didnt knnow how to put together right.
Just don't even try... if you're going to say that kind of stuff here then just know that you wont get anywhere fast. Purefix and anything like it sucks big time. And I'm not just some idiot who thinks purefix sucks just because they're a company for wannabe hipsters, I actually do my research before I go out and make a stupid purchase and waste 300$ or 150$ or whatever you spent on that piece of crap. If you don't believe me, just ask anyone else on this forum. I've already enlightened you once, but hopefully you'll actually listen to me this time.
Purefix, bigshot, republic, aerofix, zyclefix, sole, retrospec, any companies like that, they all suck. There's a few different reasons why:
1. The frames are made out of hiten steel which is crap because it's heavy as h**l and gets a s**t-ton of rust on it if you get it wet even once.
2. Those companies all use no-name parts which are terrible. They're very VERY heavy and not worth the time to even glance at because they're so ugly. Just look at the rims on zyclefix bikes or the crankset on bigshot bikes...
3. I'm sorry to say, but any fixie that costs under 400$ is going to be a giant waste of money. The kilo tt is an exception of course because it's actually an amazing bike. Any custom fixie is also an exception because the cost of different parts vary on different sites.
Look, I'm sorry for being such a pretentious dbag but I have an intense hate for these companies because they rip people off big time.
