I just want to say that I love bikes and like more people riding.

I could not help smiling and laughing a lot though as I was wandering about downtown in seattle this fine Monday AM.

The chopped handlebar trend raises this important question: why handlebars? I'll cheer for the first person to rotate their stem 90 degrees and use it for a hand rest.
Um, what is up with that nicely color-matched-but-orphaned front reflector bracket? SO out of place on a hipster fixie!
Reminds me of the handlebars on my nephews little fold-up scooter thing...
Except the scooter has better grips.
Chad,
Right on! First person to put that on fixed gear gallery wins a virtual kwepie doll.
Jimg, Yeah the colors are baffling. Dirty pink spraypaint over everything, but then taking the time to color match the reflector bracket? Genius!
Marrock,
I think that must be the genesis of the latest really freaking narrow bar trend (I remember one of the MIT architecture profs in the early 90's had a sweet flat grey track bike with chopped flat bars, but they were at least 4 grip widths...)
Thanks for reading!
