The NYC ambience has always been music to my ears. The peaceful delivery on a fixed is dope to get an experience of. I ride fixed but my home area isn’t the best place for it. Seems pretty cool in NYC. Thanks
One aspect of the United States that I find challenging is the generally high noise level in restaurants, bars, and pubs. I live in Vienna, and dining out in my hometown is quite a different experience. When going on a date, it's almost as if we have to raise our voices to have a conversation, and I struggle to comprehend why that's necessary. When I travel abroad, it's often easy for me to identify Americans solely by their volume when speaking. Interestingly, many of them seem to adapt to European standards of quieter dining when they spend some time here. Please don't misunderstand me; I genuinely appreciate the warm and friendly nature of Americans. I haven't had the opportunity to dine in some of the more upscale restaurants in the USA, which I understand can offer a more tranquil atmosphere. At times, I yearn for company in a more relaxing setting, but it appears that this privilege is often reserved for wealthier Americans.
@@Sebastian_Koenig_ You're telling me London or Amsterdam are quiet? Its like any big cities, the reason you think Americans are loud is probably because you only travel to large cities mostly due to the popularity. Plenty of small quaint cities in any country, but they are mostly left untouched by tourists. Also as a tourist you are probably in the busiest parts of the cities as that is where tourists dwell, which by nature is gonna loud.
NYC and the word "peaceful" never ever, ever, never never never never correlates. Never, I repeat, never I used to live there, it's a place of anxiety, fear, deceit, toxicity, distrust, traitory, feminism, hatred, liberal Again, it never ever ever ever is peaceful. How dare you? Please, apologize this instant. NYC and peaceful..... Never!
Dude... I love your content !... keep putting up the vids... its amazing to look into your life and see how you do this.. thanks again for sharing with us !
I also do Uber Eats with Fixed Gear in Canada. I think it's definitely cooler and better than using an Uber bag. But what if you receive a large order?
Hey. Awesome to see a new vid!! Btw can you tell us what bag you are using? It looks so good! Love the new hd camera btw.. so crisp. I haven’t been back in a while haha. Take care ❤
Great stuff bud, I ride one myself when doing UberEats but I don't use the fixed gear even though it is possible to switch. By the way, what are your trip filters? Do you set the mileage to 1.5-2.0?
there are no couriers here where i live in South Florida, im so curious, what happens when the order is too big or if they ordered drinks and it wont fit in the bag?
Hey man I was watching a video from last year when you switched from gig deliveries to starting a new job for a company as a bike courier. Do you still do that or did you switch back to gigs on Uber Eats permanently? If so, what made you go back? Thanks! (I've been enjoying the videos btw)
Quad Lock. Get a Quad Lock case for your phone and then the mount for the bike. It’s not even a half second to get it on and off. There are similar locking type mounts and cases and knock offs, but Quad Lock is the beast.
@@mybigdebuttnothing is needed. The case has the slots for it for the phone and it rotates a quarter turn on the mount and locks on. The mount has a little paddle you press down and then you rotate the phone a quarter back and lift it off. There are many different mounts for motorcycles, bikes, cars, desks etc. You don’t even need the phone case they sell a stick on portion you can stick onto your phone or a slick case and use it with the mounts. Search TH-cam for “quad lock phone” and you can see what I am talking about.
Just got my fixed gear yesterday really excited rode for a couple hours, now my butt hurt so bad. It's been 10+ years since i was last ride a bike. Is there any way to prevent my butt from hurting or my butt will used to it?
Same here, got my fixed gear today. Ass and balls were not comfortable.. found out the saddle I have sucks. Going to get my tailbone measured and find a better saddle
@@Yuko_fps fuck yeah I'm riding with brakes. Lmfaoo. I don't want to bust my ass trying to look cool.. fuck that.. I'm using a front break until I am so comfortable with the bike and stoping whenever I want. Only then will I think of removing the front break
Usually one ends up getting used to it, that's how it happened to me when I got back ride bike, the first few days my butt hurt, but eventually it will pass.
Typically snugged between your belt and your shorts/pants. The wider portion of the lock (receiving end) keeps the lock from slipping since it is held by the belt.
Fixie refers to any bike that has a fixed back wheel (you can't coast). Track bikes refer to bikes used for well, tracks (velodrome). Track bikes are usually fixies as far as I'm aware
track bikes are specifically for racing, so higher grade materials and parts. afaik track bikes got no auxilliary brakes as on a race track you dont need to brake, while normal day fixies sometimes do, also fixies are more casual, f.ex more comfortable upright geometry for long rides and less stiffness in the frame for any bumps (?)
Track bikes means they belong and pass track rules (drop bars, high bottom bracket, no coast, etc). “Fixie” is a word that mostly beginners use to say “fixed”. So all track bikes are “fixies” (fixed) but not all fixies are track bikes.
That eBike pusher got a little spicy at 1:55 because he's in a rush, but then can't figure out how to carve up an intersection at 2:17 while you just casually roll through.
@JoseLopez-xv4fc I still have the front break on mine.. once I get much better at stopping without breaks. I'll remove the front break. Maybe in a month or so. After that I'll be riding just like this lol Try it out
I like your video. cool how you ride fixed and no brakes. I am getting a fixed gear bike in a few days but IM going to using the free wheel hub side. Mine will have front and rear brakes. Also got a Fat Gel Seat for it. Going to put some nice tall BMX Bars on my fixie bike or i mean free wheel bike with brakes.

Mounts are for people who don’t know the city very well and need to look at their gps constantly. Most couriers just use a phone pouch and just know how to get there from memory or listen to the gps give directions. It’s honestly safer this way because you’re not looking at your phone and can focus on the road.
I feel like a total NPC after doing this all day and watching his vídeos were he is doing the same thing, the difference is that I live on a 3rd world hell hole and here it is more miserable and fun AKA dangerous 💀

Thank you for watching! Much appreciated! 🙏🏼
It is a shame if you want to walk 30 feet away from your bike you have to lock it up so no one will steal it.
Why is that a shame? If it’s not in eye sight then it’s gone , I’ve learned that many times
@@andrewiskb24 Crime is so bad, that is what I ment for it to be a shame. It is almost that bad whee I live too. We live in bad times
its shame that you think like that , dude your not in heaven this is the reality,wake up
Mfs been stealing since the beginning of times 😂😂😂 stop complaining
it's a shame because it sucks that people will steal your shit. @@andrewiskb24
Smoove riding, dude! May your travels be safe and may you be paid well!
bro finally found meaning in life...
Those who ride fixed gear are an amazing class
Gotta censor the people's faces. World is full of creeps and I wouldn't wanna be filmed at my house in my PJs.
I also do Uber Eats with Fixed Gear in Canada. I think it's definitely cooler and better than using an Uber bag. But what if you receive a large order?
Don’t get an Uber bag. Get a Trash
Hey. Awesome to see a new vid!!
Btw can you tell us what bag you are using? It looks so good!
Love the new hd camera btw.. so crisp. I haven’t been back in a while haha.
Take care ❤
New subscriber from the UK. Love your channel I’m looking at getting a fixie to ride. Btw you have awesome style too brother. Respect
Great stuff bud, I ride one myself when doing UberEats but I don't use the fixed gear even though it is possible to switch. By the way, what are your trip filters? Do you set the mileage to 1.5-2.0?
Where are u able to adjust the mileage? It's possible I'm not able to because my city is much smaller, but I was curious...
@@benmeister5978 10:34 10:37 😅

Que tranquilidade para realizar o trabalho, parabéns.
Quantas entregas em quantas horas?
Thank you 🙏🏼
bro what kind of backpack are you using?
Great quality footage! What r ur upload settings? TY.
Ubereat, door dash, and grubhub has been slow for almost everyone in summer 2023. How much did you made on this day for this video on ubereat?
Awesome vid, just got back into track bikes wish I could do this
there are no couriers here where i live in South Florida, im so curious, what happens when the order is too big or if they ordered drinks and it wont fit in the bag?
It’s almost rare that this happens but you can always cancel the order if you don’t feel comfortable taking it.
Wow.. deserve million subscriber ❤️💪💪 watching here in the 🇵🇭

Do you use an allen key to get on and off or is there a sort of quick release version out there?

Alvaro Bro i ride Cinelli Vigorelli Steel Track Bike but i use Front Brake Cus it is Illegal to ride a bike without any Brakes in NYC Bro .
Does the other vehicles in NY using the bike lanes at rush hour?

Where do you place your bike lock whilst riding?
Typically snugged between your belt and your shorts/pants. The wider portion of the lock (receiving end) keeps the lock from slipping since it is held by the belt.
What backpack are you using ?
What's the camera you are using?
Great work. Just a question. Is your bag thermostatic or regular?
What is the name of this fork?
What do you do if the order has drinks?

this bike is rad
That eBike pusher got a little spicy at 1:55 because he's in a rush, but then can't figure out how to carve up an intersection at 2:17 while you just casually roll through.
He is just waiting at a red light like like most people do and still ended up ahead.
Ebike riders can be annoying
That's not an e-bike. That's a moped. E-bikes need to pedal or no movement.
fixed greetings from germany ;)
with 10 private rides. how often does someone give you a tip?
With all the people honking they will gladly steal your bike lol crazy

great video! do you ride without any lights? Don't you think it's dangerous?
Bro he already riding without breaks lmao, lights ain't nothing at this point
@@peakflava he's a wild man. I would be wearing reflective everything, ringing my little bell every 10 ft so they see me.
@JoseLopez-xv4fc I still have the front break on mine.. once I get much better at stopping without breaks. I'll remove the front break. Maybe in a month or so. After that I'll be riding just like this lol

I live next to alot of these bike delivery people I feel like I'm stalking my neighbors LOLOOL
name of bag？
I'm just shocked seeing you driving without brakes!😮
some bike have a reverse pedal brake

you're right but for errands and slow pace it do the job
@@jawlatnet
@@adamboujouf5133this bike is fixed. There isn’t a reverse pedal brake lol
Do you pedal backwards for the brake?
yes
😂
No, if you pedal backwards on a Fixie, you ride backwards 😅
@@mat.se57 I’m beginning to ask what I presumed was a reasonable question…
Im wonder what bag are you use ?
Looks like Chrome Warsaw 2.0. I might be wrong!
Fixed gear means your pedals turn even if u don't hey? This kid delivers pizzas on a penny farthing next or what ?

That bag huge bro..

Where is the bike brake?
It's a fixed gear , there is no brake , you stop by locking the rear tire

No serious delivery biker works without a phone Mount.
