But who says you have to ride a track bike-or a "fixie" as some call it-on the track?
I know I'm getting a bit old to be a "fixie hipster", but I really like the idea of building / riding / maintaining a minimalist bike with fewer moving parts than my current commuter bike.— MAKE Magazine
I don't really want to but it seems that they give you them free when you buy a fixie, along with the colour-blindness that causes that terrible problem with traffic lights.— digg.com: Stories / Popular
I mean, it is a bit of an attempt to ape the DIY aesthetic of the fixie nation.— Progressive Bloggers
I am probably opening myself up to significant abuse to note that fixie riders usually don't encumber their bikes with lights any more than they do with other marginally useful inventions like brakes.— Eyebeam reBlog
