they may be popular or a fad but all of my friends that ive talked to that ride them really like fixed, its a different cycling experience. if you are a good enough cyclist and can ride a fixed well, all the more power to those people. -- they dont have brakes, but there are several ways to slow down/brake/emergency brake, or you can just add brakes as a precaution and dont use them unless you have to.

i already said im going to get a coaster and handle brakes for it. you can easily change it from a fixed to a single speed w/ coasting, and ill more than likely ride like that most of the time.
