Bicycle crash.jpgPut a stop to the idiots who ride single speed bikes mascaraed as fixers. You can spot these wannabes who ride a freewheel and only a front brake. This is fine if you are on a fixie as you can apply resistance to the back wheel through your pedals but the folk who are riding with only a front anchor are missing the point and I'm guessing that they are not very experienced cyclists which makes it an accident waiting to happen. Rant over.

The review certainly isn't wrong, but I do find it slightly amusing that 9.6kg is considered 'light for a children's bike'. As cycling adults many...
