Fixed Gear Rider Shows Off His Otherworldly Balance

Fixed gear riding is an often overlooked discipline of street riding that is frankly incredibly impressive and seems to be making a resurgence.

Check out this fixie rider who goes by deythos on Instagram putting down some unreal control and balance in the clip below.

If you have ever tried riding backwards on your mountain bike you can attest that even going a few feet can be incredibly difficult. It makes a clip like this all the more impressive.

One thing I have always felt like mountain biking is missing is street style. From the flair of the riding to the actual style of the riders, it is a far more aesthetically pleasing style than the regular mountain bike getup in my opinion.

Anyway, I digress. The point is that the influence of urban culture on biking is rad from the riding down to the finesse and fashion of it and I am here for it.
