i think it's a parody of a bike. it's like it's mocking all these customized fixies on FGG.

makes me smile.

That bike reminds me of the way i dress.

... also...

Getting the armstrong sprayed/what a cunt-stickered purple, i have a fatlace front wheel for it, a yellow saddle, will be building a yellow back wheel.... basically nobody will want to ride anywhere near me :)

they're easier to diy than front mount.. look a bit better, except for the long cable, but can sort that out with a tidy championship stripe tt protector!

My thoughts exactly, I quite like it, its only the front rim that I don't like.

Yep!

The rear brake mount looks to be a homemade/retrofit plate welded on to the seat stays.

Also the brake cable looks to have a full length housing (no cable stops on the frame).

i am not a fan. but on the rear brake comment i met a crazy italian guy who was ridding fixed with 2 brakes he said that if he was going to take a brake off it would be the front one because he used the back brake more and would feel safer. dont really get it but hey.
