>>962815the race with those
>>962818I guess the main reason is they are cheaper, people in the countryside earn shit sometimes less than 100 USD a month, so if you want to race you need the cheapest bike available. Steel and single speed so they are easier and cheaper to repair. Fat tyres because the roads here are shit, i suppose.
I believe they call those things turismeras.
>>962819nah, they are the opposite of a fred. They are not pretending to race in expensive bikes, they are actually racing in shit ones and even winning some cash by doing so.
