And you surf BF b/c you don't care what your bike looks like? Hooded brakes completely destroy the whole fixed look. I'm not a proponent of people riding brakeless, I don't care what you choose to do w/ your own life, but I think hooded brakes on a fixie are counter-productive. So then what? You put on both hoods and have one set up as a dummy or just saw off one of the levers? That looks even more stupid.
