How does /fa/ get around?

[Anonymous No.10204054]

Just ordered this, upgrading from an old 2nd hand commuter. Anyone else have one of these?

Otherwise I like to skate and walk if it's nice out, and the public transportation is pretty good where I live.

Post bikes, boards, cars, motocycles

I skateboard but not for travel
I walk, or run if I don't need to be overly presentable
I avoid cars as much as possible, prefer public transport

Yeah figures. I bet you ride your fixy on the sidewalk and antagonize pedestrians.

Suuure, you'll look like one of those clueless idiots with drop bars on an old MTB, like from that forum thread that was linked on /n/.

This is actually so cool. Sick yellow frame. From what I can see high spec parts. Fully functional with the panniers, lock w/ attachment and bottle holder. Also looks like it can take a beating on longer journeys.
This is bike goals for me man. Cannot be fucked with the whole fixed minimalist bike shit.

[Anonymous No.10204487]

>>10204448
I mean I'd take off my risers and put on the bullhorns to to take a pic and show you that it looks good but that's a very complicated process.

I'd obviously put a different stem on there if I was doing drops, but my current stem works great with the bullhorns I have.

Bought this fixie for $20.

Saving up to buy a nicer set of wheels for it, but it rides nicely.

This.

One thing that people really don't get is that your pedals are literally always moving.

Advantages:
>controlled speed going down hill without needing to use your breaks (if your legs are strong enough)
>riding backwards

Disadvantages:
>can't lean too far into turns or else you'll scrape a pedal
>if anything gets stuck in your chain you're fucked

[Anonymous No.10205259]

Got this, fun to ride (Had the gear on because I was on trackdays)

Also, I drive a Golf 6, cool car, nothing too fancy, was thinking to get an old porsche boxter or so.

fun to whip about traffic. slappy grinds are easy with the short nose. fast as fuck too. and the best part is it isn't a longboard.
