Here's a secret that will blow your mind! Some people actually enjoy a bit of a challenge! It's pretty unnecessary to have 30 gears when you have your bike for recreational use! It's a challenge to ride. A 5 year old can handle 30 gears, but not all can handle fixed. And fixed is not a synonym for "no brakes" Many people have brakes, some just like the challenge of no brakes. The enjoyment you get when you are able to stop your bike without real brakes is ridiculous! Doesn't have to be practical
i got in a wreck on my 18 speed when a car ran a stop sign and i was lucky enough to bail. only picked up a fixie to save money until i could afford another 18 or 21 speed, but ive fallen in love. simple, elegant, little maintanence. its amazing.
That guy has a mag rim. Those cost around $200.00 here in America. The other guy had a Fuji frame. That's a super lightweight frame. I spend more time looking at the parts than I do the video.
How about the dude with like 7 mags hanging from his garage? I was freaking out hahaha
Dont forget the bianchi frame haha.
Lighter more reliability.
The parts shown in the video? The one you’re not looking at?

200 for a wheel is nothing
ALL BIKE ARE BEAUTIFUL...BUT BIANCHI BIKE IS WONDERFUL!!!!!
Im 12 years old and I LOVE cycling, mountain cycling. Its sometimes dangerous and your heart skips a beat but that's the fun. And today i saw a Single Speed in a shop me and my dad were in and i fell in love. Not the best but a Globe Roll 3! But no "its to expensive" and "you already have a bike"! So annoying, im in love with them!
Ive got that book at the start of the film!!It is a great read!And nice video too.
I love the paint job on that guys rear wheel.
the poor fuji frame. At least put some proper pursuit bars on it
Yeah, that sure beats a bike with one gear and no breaks.
Nice vid...I need a HED 3 in white. Nice bikes and good vid! To all my fellow riders!
I guess you're not familiar with track bikes which is what 'fixies' are based off of. Lots of fixies don't have brakes.
wow you all fast ,nice team ,nice story too ...:D enjoy
Get one. I have an 09 bowery and i will ride that bike until the day my legs stop working. Unbelievably light
Lube it Up!!
Fixies need a single gear that isn't too hard to start out in but then again that single gear also needs to be able to propel you along at a nice speed. You're not hitting 50km/h on a daily-driven fixie. The pros will on a track with no problem but you'd never want that gearing for city riding.
that is a bet you're gonna win, my friend.
Feel free to take the brakes off your regular bike. Let us know the route you ride, so we can watch you take an intersection.
love how the guy at 1:54 casually has $2,000 worth of wheels hanging behind him.
i ride all kinds of bikes from fixies roadbikes to even recumbants... the tri bike is my best fit though....
fixies are simple but i feel that bikes need more intelligent brake systems and to retain the aesthetics of a fixie. brake and gearing systems look ugly but they are putting more plastic covers on this to make it look better in recent mountain bikes. Internal gear or cvt with belt drive is simple, fat handle bars, built in LED lights etc
You guys are local!! Whats good lets bike!
Hahaha some of you guys think that said that they are Japanese and Chinese... read the description people. They are Thai people.
Toms Shoes, Check
Man Capris, Check
Fixie, you Betchya!
Good to knoww @limewire2rrrrrrrrr...

Cool let's ride c ya around.
พี่สุดยอดมากครับ
There's no way I'd ride a bike without at least one pair of brakes. Even when I was younger, I couldn't do it. I like to be able to stop at a moment's notice, not learn techniques on how to stop sans brakes.
คนไทยเจ๋งอยู่แล้ว ไปที่ไหนก็เฟี๊ยว -3-
Why only Thai students? Is there a specific culturthing that links between Thai students and ssp?
แจ่มมาก อะไหล่ ที่ต่างประเทศแพงกว่า ไทยเยอะไหมครับ
Hey guys, what part of San Francisco do you live guys live in?
You pedal backwards on a fixie to slow you down, by pedal I really mean apply weight backwards against the direction you're pedalling. You can also take your weight off the back of the bike and lock the pedals and you sorta skid, but that's really to slow rather than come to a complete stop. Some people have a front brake, but others don't. They're good fun if you live in a flat area, but as soon as there's a remotely steep/long hill I find it terrifying haha. Hope that helps (:
I think I say a Giant Bowery in the line up. I've had my eye on that bike for a minute :)
i'd like to transform my road bike into a fixie only because they look smooth, simple and ellegant...
attention: 20 somethings.... every bike years ago was a single speed !
a fixie is a short term for fixed gear
อยู่ที่ไหนคับพี่ อยากไปปั่นด้วย ผมอยู่ซานฟรานเหมือนกันคับ
Most likely when I purchase mine I'll be putting brakes on it.
คนไทยเจ๋งที่สุดแล้วครับ ^^.
If I had a fixie I would be using drops.. Get some serious sprinting going on...
You're totally right! I rather shave my legs, wear spandex and have an aerodynamic helmet and a bike with 30 gears! Makes me go so much faster!
what brand are the bikes and the price
YAY found Thai people in SF at last!!
That makes 2 of us !
Bianchi !!!!!!!
ขอบคุณที่ทำคลิปดีๆอย่างนี้ออกมานะครับ เป็นแรงผลัดดันในชีวิตให้ผมขี่ต่อไปมากๆครับ ขอบคุณครับ
Mantap... salam bikers..
singgah yo..
อยากไปปั่นบ้าง เมืองนอกอากาศน่าปั่น
I been riding fixed gear for 6 and still dont got that typa bike :,(
Cool video guys, awesome fixies. You should have a fixie shop.
ผมยังรักfixieมาก
Should I get a 52 or 55 cm frame, I'm 5'8
Who said anything about no brakes?
u guys still ride?
in. hilly. places.
เจ๋งวะพี่ !!!
i hear them say fixed gear instead of "fixie".
อยู่ประเทศไรหรอครับ
whats a 3 hed?? Im new
Too bad there isn't something in between a fixie without brakes and a single speed with brakes? Wait a minute! There is! A coaster brake bike! Ta Da! O.K., here comes the negative comments.....
a single speed does have a coaster brake. thats why many call them costies
+William Hergenhan My single speed coaster has hand operated brakes, not coaster brakes.
How about a fixie with brakes!!!
gangam style
Hi Raymondo
I Have Never Seen A Hill That Goes 40 mph ?
I literally didn't see a single HED the entire video
song name?
That's painfull, oh my gosh. Don't buy anything else! Fixies are a dream! But not in my city though... too many holes. oh yes! That's what i'm talking about.
no...
อเมริกาครับ
Strange accent they have in San Francisco.
Yea those socal accents
I ride a fixed gear but my city is 95% flat.
JCMELKOR then that's good for you
hope I had a proper bike
all I have is a foldable bike
NIZ NIXZAR I have a foldable bike too but planning on getting a fixie this week or next one, even tho 45% of my city is hills idc fuck it!
I'm no Van Gogh lol
asian man swagg! :3
คนไทยไม่แพ้ชาติใดในโลก
ปั่นเขาด้วย โคตรเจ๋ง
Dope!!!
single speed/fixed gear. Different things.
Thai land awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
But is a Fixed, not a single speed...
this is regresion..... i don't see the point of rideing a fixie.... you get more what?
And the experience is way different
Think minimalism, its bike art, most freeing
It's just different, and you feel more "connected" to the fixed gear bike, that's true. Plus you have to develop certain skills on a fixed gear bike to avoid an accident. I am way faster with the freewheel though.
It's to be part of an idiotic counterculture.
Alex George false fixed gear bike were there before brake and gears
คนไทยนี่หว่า
MOUTAIN BIKE
but cool vid anyway
ถ้าไม่พูดนี่นึกคนญี่ปุ่นสะอีกว่าญี่ปุ่น

single heart single speed....single brain cell
lool... the movement... fixies exist since forever... you hipsters just copy like everyone else... when will you see that? ...
ปวดขา ปวดสะโพก เมื่อยเอว ...
lol
i dont care if you r cool or not...
Not. Practical.
nvm haha
First of all fixies can have breaks but most of them don't have brakes but skid to stop or slow down. Then on a fixed gear you can beat a bike with gears it just depends on what kind of rider you are, they can go the same speed... if a fixed can ride 50 km/h a normal bike can do it to and the other way around. BTW i ride a fixie and i think it's practical enough.
Lube goes on the INSIDE of the chain! Who directed this nonsense?
japanese...
Hipster shit=(....downhill rules
