I used to be inspired by FGG. Now if I see a bike with those ugly, stoopid, corny looking risers I just skip to the next one. To each his own, but the people who put those on their bikes are just posers following a fad. Why would you put Deep V's/aero wheels (another cliche'!) and a pista drop stem on, and then have just one, upright handlebar position? I know, because you're not really riding the bike, you're playing show and tell with your hipster friends!

The latest hipster trend, successor to "b!tching about hipsters," is "jumping on an internet forum bandwagon regarding a preference for the way someone else performs a task that is unrelated to your quality of life."
