Maybe things will change for the hardcore urban riders once the EA Bareknuckle has reached the 1,000,000 sales mark. Eventually the people from the non-fad fixie crowd will get upset enought to try something else.
Fixt cross might happen, but cross is really hard. The scene is cool, and it's a very individual sport. Maybe fixt cross bikes will be used for fixt bike polo.
