    It's pretty amazing when people can ride fixed gear bikes properly, but they are fun in the sense that they are simple, and a whole different feeling when you ride. You definitely feel more connected to the bike, I still keep a brake on mine, because I can't get the hang of leaning forward and locking up the back tire to get a controlled skid stop. So, in other words, if I didn't have a brake, I wouldn't be able to stop fast enough. That's because I'm inexperienced though.
