You guys are a bunch of try-hards. I know all of you came out of the womb on a placenta-smeared Nagasawa and all, but please cut the guy some slack. Kudos to Aeroplane for not being an ass.

right now i'm emptying the delivery trucks in the morning with my roommate for puma. the 201 came in so we snagged it. it's sorta interesting, although i'll admit i didn't make it through the whole thing. i've got some scans and i'll send them to whoever wants them, as long as you promise not to pay money for it over ebay. but before warned, my scanner stinks.

100 times better than any marketing drivel puma is going to put out.
And Gyeswho, none of us were born on a fixed gear, but none of us learned to ride because of puma. We practiced, rode, observed, learned from friends, sheldon, other web pages. I doubt any of us here learned (or have learned) much of anything from puma ads.
People aren't making fun of you because you're new to fixed gear, its because you are claiming you want an advertising brochure and 'don't want to pay for it'

Shiznaz,
Thanks for posting that image.
I checked out the MrBike site and found this to be somewhat amusing:

An ounce of common sense goes a long way when riding in the city.

But, you learn from the experience of others...by RIDING with others! I know it's a new paradigm, but I swear it works.

i learn by experience, not by reading or listening. you can try to explain something to me for hours, but until i do it i'm like meatwad when they take out his brain to go swimming.
"do what now?"

Don't harsh on somebody for asking for access to information. Good information is good information no matter the source.
BTW, what kind of shoes do you wear?

There seems to be the attitude that because Puma put out the book that the book is bad. We all wear corprate clothing, it's damn near impossible not to, but to benifit from something that a corpration put out, well, that's bad.....

I don't think it's bad because it's corporate. I think it's bad because it's bad.
Puma 201 is NOT good information.
It's riddled with errors.
