Okay acidfast7, we get it, you don't like drop bars for commuting. That doesn't mean that the rest of us who do like them and use them are wrong. Amazingly, you posted that urban bikes don't have drop bars, but then posted a picture of one, maintaining that they have been around for years. The problem is labels vs uses. Urban & commuter bikes don't have drop bars, but bikes that work well for urban and commuting uses may have drop bars. My adventure/gravel bike is exactly that, but 90% of its use is urban & commuting and it works very well.

I am of the opinion that any bike with used for urban / commuting use needs to have the ability to operate the derailleurs and brakes without requiring the rider to change their hand position. Does that mean that you are wrong by suggesting or liking bar end shifters? No, it only means that you have different preferences and priorities than I do. Additionally, I would never ride a fixie by choice, but I realize and accept that many people intentionally make the choice to ride them.
