Getafix:Check the inappropriate footwear.
Is that a new prototype clilpless system?

josh, i've heard that poor kid died afterwards. It originally circulated around facebook, and facebook permanently banned a few users for it.
Its pretty horrendous. I dont think i've ever cringed from accidents like that before.
-
missed it first time round I guess.
I apologise for posting it and I did intend to write a warning but then completely forgot. I was also pretty tired when I posted it and perhaps let my judgment slip and I kinda assumed since it was shown that he had probably survived. I never meant to make light of something that was so horrific but am well aware I have put myself in pretty similar situations before (infact almost identical) it makes you remember we are all mortal and what seems like a bit of fun can end tragically.
I have removed it.

look at this fixed gear bike shop, look at those bikes!!! some are rather stupid like the one in the window, with aero spoke wheels.

Shopper with two aerospokes. Brilliant.

hahaha listen to what this guy is singing at the start, what a twat!

yass

I can't even see how it happens
-
I believe they call it hipster fail
-
Interesting idea, and I bet it would be huge fun and everything, but why do the voiceovers for this kind of video have to make it out like: a) riding a fixed gear bike is like some Herculean feat only to be attempted by mega-gods, and b) that every bike ride has to be like, a spiritual journey, man.
-
any chance you will edit so i can see what you're talking about?To quick for me
-
He also instantly starts talking bullshit with that comment about fixed designed for track!

'We took track bikes...but like, on the road....*pause for effect*'
Holy crap! That's like me wearing my raincoat....when it's not raining!

I walked into town today in squash shoes it was like so sureal you know, walking in shoes designed for a woodstrip playing surface and i wasn't even holding a racket it really made me, like, have a whole zen moment and shit which was totally awesome, then I went to mcdonalds and had a vegeburger because like I don't poison my body with meat y'know.
-
Are they hi-tec squash shoes? They're the best. They make you at one with the pavement.

-
Voiceover makes them douche like but a freaking awesome trip!
-
Its a must satisfying way to travel and you aren't destroying the earth, except with your flights though yeah?
-
I genuinly think if I had gone with them I'd be the only to make it to the end

Not trying to flog a dead cliche or anything, but see in videos like 'Junkun' above and some Fixed Gear London one I just watched, how come they're always like; 'People say you can't ride that track bike on the streets! That's for the track!..and I'm like, fuck you man!'.
When do people ever, ever say that? How many times has anyone here ever been stopped by a passer-by saying, 'Hey man, that's not cool! Get thee to a velodrome!'

All the time man, it happens at least once a day.
And when i knock on the velodrome door they say unto me, come hither with your 60gear inches and ride on our pristine planks with your 47c street tyres.
They then go on to compliment my choice of riser handlebar and bmx inspired componentary commenting on how sturdy my bike looks. They often tell me it'd be great for Keirin.;P

rusty:Another one that's definitely not just about the riding.
Wow, definitely don't get worked up over internet videos..but..yeah. Pretty sad.
-
what are they doing riding track bikes on an actual track? thats just insane
-
all the hipsters are doing it
-
'People are like, you can't ride that 12 inch travel DH bike on the track! and I'm like, 'fuck you man'. It's a journey, an emotional journey. Round in a circle.

People are like, you can't ride round the velodrome clockwise! and I'm like, 'fuck you man'. Now I see where they were coming from.

Final picture explains all. The tache might also explain why he could control a skid like that.

One of my mates was out in Belfast a few weeks ago and met him. Bought him a couple of drinks too.
