Dammit, Jim!!! Walker's already got a tread on this bike. Here I am being all "up-to-date". I'll go back to work now.

Get real, being a "cyclist" is not that big a deal. riding a bike is not hard. I've been doing it without training wheels since I was like 8 and I was a late learner. SO get over your elitist bull****, and ride your bike.

That "people who ride a track bike" vs. "cyclists" comment is such a can of worms. Obviously some people are only on a bike because it's a glorified fashion accessory for them. In a similar vein (as far as attitude goes) are the jaded hardcore elitists who scoff at and look down on anyone new to their genre of cycling.

**** them both. If you're on a bike because you enjoy it (even when no one's around to impress, no one will hear about how cool you are and there's nothing to win at the end of the ride) then you're on the bike for the right reason. You're allowed to have a piece of **** bike and not feel bad about it. You're also allowed to save up for some wildly expensive boutique/esoteric whatnot just because you think it's cool. As long as you're a bike geek that's all that matters.

PS. Some day, custom steel. Until then, POS steel. And quit hatin' on aluminum, it's not all bad. ;)

Debating over the meaning of the word "cyclist".

2nd or 3rd worst thread ever. COngradulations, not bad!

freds are the only real cyclists anyway

oh my god... Have you all been riding bikes at the beach, cause there is a definate case of sand in vagina going on here.

would anyone like to argue about who makes a better set of full flush cut dikes? I'm saying linstrom, sure they're $70 each, but they'll last for atleast a year and a half, alot better than klines.

I agree with this post. I live in south florida and THERE ARE NO HILLS. Having more then one gear is pretty pointless. Most people that ride bikes around here have 20 gears and leave it in one. So having a single speed that isnt a beach cruiser or a bmx being sold to the masses es muy bueno.

Track bikes are OUT segways are IN

Everybody go!
