Sorry, I thought by the OP saying "I've come to the conclusion that I might want to get a fixed gear" that he was soliciting pros/cons, or in your words, "whether SS/FG bikes are a good idea or not" for him personally in order to achieve his goals. Now, if he said something like "I am definitely looking for a FG/SS, so which one is the best for me?" you would definitely have a valid point.

And I'm sorry you were offended by my attempt at humor. You obviously weren't the only one, so yeah I get it, making fun of "hipsters" is taboo here and I'll stop. I'm still new here.
