2. bike shops make a lot of money selling fixies for the next year, then get stuck with the extra stock when it dies down. 3. parents and pundits complain about wreckless youth bombing through traffic without brakes. a few kids get hurt or die. 4. fixie trend dies.
Everybody wins. Except for the stupid who rode fixies in traffic with no brakes or skill. You can't fix stupid. |

Wingtips may be the next "transportation movement".

Quicksilver was not even a very good movie.
The best bike messenger movie ever is '2 Seconds'. That was really good. I highly recommend it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0158446/ |

I love bikes. I love action movies. I'll watch it. |
That last shot, where you see the car coming, hear the crunch, and he ends up on the pavement.... I know what that feels like. I just got a flashback. *shudder* Don't think I will be watching it.

I am sorry but the idea is garbage...
