I have been riding a Critical Cycle bike for a few months now (be 75 in November) and just love it. It a good and cheap and fun to ride bike. I ride it 30 minutes almost everyday to McDonalds and back for a coffee and muffin. Have not had a single problem with it and only changed the Pedals out for a nice set I had in my shop. Even the seat is comfortable. You cannot beat a cheap Critical fixie for value and fun.
