Fixies are fun and really useful when riding in traffic. The ability to slow down and keep your balance is something I really miss when I ride my geared bike. That being said, I use this the most now:

i ride a fixed every day. i love it, although having to peddle downhill gives me the shits. i'm also really jaded of the whole fixie trend - the rolled up jeans and those ridiculous white canvas shoes.
- I Ride with rolled up jeans on long club rides too... I get some good looks from the carbonites.non
- So why exactly are you riding a fixed conversion if you don't want to peddle?technikiller

i like bikes in general, i don't ride a fixie... just riding period is dope in my opinion. I really wish i could afford an Airnimal tho.., a Chameleon, a Joey, it wouldnt matter. I just know that as more people get weened offa gas and cars,, there's gonna be a rise in riders. The MTAs can only handle 2 bikes on the bumper racks at most ... so havin a "foldie" (lol),. is gonna be handy as a muvvv,. plane train or automobile.,.
any of you have experience with a folding bike?

i like the sleekness and overall minimalist aspect of fixies, and i got to admit some look pretty cool. however i don't understand the advantages/purposes of using one. Can anyone elucidate? i'm quite curious...
