Did anyone ever lower their VW bug with a dial a drop on the front beam? Made the car drive like a buckboard. Handling, braking, comfort were all out the window, but hot-damn, it looked cool!

Fixies are the same to me as a dial a drop. If you're 18, you can't understand why anyone wouldn't want to, but by the time you reach 54, you can't understand why anyone would want to.

(and, gtc, you're describing a single speed, not a fixie. The difference is vast.)
