This thread has has made me chuckle; good onya' OP for for starting it. At the time of this writing my post count is only 25 ......... and have already become a pariah to some in the single speed/ fixie community. My offense was coming to the aid of someone who flipped bullhorn(flop and chop) style handlebars to take advantage of the ergonomic curve of the handles (plow style). Wow, there's some vitriol with that group that nearly equals what I've experienced in the motorcycle community.
New topic of disagreement:
Mounting handle bars upside down or right side up.
