>>1262405Why are you defending a piece of shit fixie/singlespeed (fixie, seriously who gives a shit). Why the fuck are you on this board advocating for someone to waste their money on a shitty bike. Do you know what you get with these bikes? The components are so shitty the parts regularly fail; brake levers snap, brake calipers break, the rims are barely even held together. Sure its a functional bike but OP could just as easily be pointed to the used bike thread and pick up a quality, name brand, used bicycle for the same price.
I have no fucking idea why anyone defends these shitty bike brands, and this is coming from someone who's first bike was a Pure Fix SS, a complete waste of money. You don't need to wait long to see how many shitty bike "brands" start ups offering trendy looking fixies that are complete junk. A little bit of capital and you too can have a start up making the same crap, from the same factories, that Walmart has. Sure, some of these brands rise above the rest and start to offer better bikes (Pure, State, Bombtrack) but they all started off with the same shit marketing to urbanites who wanted cool bikes.
Yes I am mad.
