Is it just the picture, or is the head angle quite steep on the new bike?
Alright someone explain to me the sub culture that is fixed gear bikes. After watching Premium Rush I'm totally curious on these no gear no brakes shenanigans. I've read the wiki article but I'm just not quite grabbing the benefits of a fixie. Is it one of those things where you have to try it out to understand? And seriously? No brakes? Do you need new tyres every month?
1. Minimalism is "cool". 2. What isn't there can't break, be stolen or vandalized.Alright someone explain to me the sub culture that is fixed gear bikes.
The other way around, because a front brake is much more effective than a rear brake.The no brakes part is idiotic, in my opinion. To operate a bicycle safely one should have at least a rear brake, and (very) preferably a front one as well.

But....from my experience slamming the front brakes usually result in a cartwheel T_T
Guys, you do know that you don't have to pull the brake lever all the way, don't you?
NO! brakes are digital, everybody knows that!
