Ride Them “Big Bikes”: Fractura de Bennett

Yes, this is a post about MTBs or as they like to call them, Big Bikes. One of the misconceptions about fixed gear kids is that we only choose to ride fixed all the time. Sure, a lot of people have a “fuck brakes” and “no gearz” mentality, but the reality is, those people probably never rode mtb or road bikes before. Ever.

While fixed and track bikes might be the gateway drug into cycling for a lot of people there’s still a big population of cyclists that appreciate all forms of riding. This video, entitled Fractura de Bennett really hit home with me, making me want to buy a DJ bike for sure! If it’s not your cup of tea, check out my friend Alan’s recent bike porn overload post on Cycling WMD. Wowzers.

    I admittedly don’t know a whole lot about bmx bikes, but are these dudes riding with no brakes? If they have no handlebar brake and they’re not fixed, how do they stop?

    hi i am one of the rider of the video and riding without brakes gives you more adrenaline to do tricks and is only a matter of getting used to.
