4 years later and people are putting risers and mtb wheels on their fixies to do bar spins and heavy as hell B43's to survive the impacts. Oh how times change.

BTW, I have the only fixed gear that goes on the road in my town of 40,000. There are a few track bike owners (yet the closest velodrome is at least 2 hours away), but they must stay really really clean inside someone's garage/basement.
