Commercial but good.
Features nice bikes - trendy but not ridiculous - and IMHO a rather cute young lady.  V much enjoyed  :P

I normally deride the ultra-style-conscious bizarro nature of some urban fixies, but I love what they've done here with the ultra-short mtb stems and of course the nice deep-section rims (are they actual Deep-Vs?)

Turns out she is quite well known as an ex-pro snowboarder and other stuff (not that I googled her or anything :-\)

Showing my age  :-[
And there are two "ultras" in my OP. I blame that on the late hour.  And partly on Juliet Elliott.

I wasn't taking the piss, unfortunately.  I must've been subliminally influenced by the thread title.

I like teh cool up to a point, but last few years some fixie fashions have just become ridiculous, creating monsters in our midst.  Check out <a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/-CsAtDuUFmk&rel=1" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/-CsAtDuUFmk&rel=1</a> for examples - to me these all look horrendous*.

By contrast, I really like the charge bikes in the video - they're very tasteful imo.



* One exception - I like the blue and yellow on at 0:35

 :)  I generally assume people are taking the piss - always nice when they're not  :)
