i don't think so, messengers have always ridden fixed. i usually see nicer bikes on the road come spring when they can pull out their fenderless lightweights.

so i finally received my new frame (original 80's bridgestone, 67cm c-t-c) from the US so operation pinkbike is in full effect. i have most of it built but i still need to get to the bike shop to get the right length bb installed. i'll post up some pics of the pink giant when i get a minute.
