I think the problem here is that the OP asked a question, which maybe seemed far enough, but it was a bit rhetorical since he knows his one speed cruiser is a single speed bike.

Because of that, people mistook it for trying to be argumentative and just another person with a problem with the hipsters and their fixies.

OP, if you had an actual technical question, it would have been answered. If you wanted to tell people about your bike, then there is a thread for that at the top. (Show off your SS/FG bikes).

The last time there was someone here with a beach cruiser, he said all bike with thin tires are gay and was so angry that his $100 Wallmart Trek brand criuser had gotten a rusty chain and seat post and therefore all bikes made by Trek were crap. He argued a lot, insulted a lot of people and got banned.

So the track record for Beach Cruiser owners here isn't so good.

But still we welcome you. If you want to be nice.

there was that guy who had that electra or whatever beach cruiser to commute in san diego and wanted some tips on gearing since he had a hill to climb. some people recommended he get a kilo or some lighter bike which was not the point of the thread, but nobody just excluded him for having a cruiser.

and the OP reads like "hey you all with thousand dollar bikes what say you to my kmart beach cruiser? why aren't there more beach cruisers why do you all spend so much on bikes why blah blah blah"

if you didn't mean to come off as a "you're all hipsters" attitude i appologize, but you came off as a "f you all, you're all hipsters" attitude.

My sincere apologies if I did. I was not even thinking of "hipsters" when I posted this thread.
