Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

They make nice riding bikes that can be set up in a number of interesting ways. The frames are built well, with cool design details and good steel. The stock paint jobs are some of the best-looking in an affordable brand IMHO. It does seem like they get a healthy amount of hype, but I'd say it comes from a good place.

That stock Big Block – porn or not – is better looking than a lot of the bikes that get posted on this sub forum.

What is the black thing attached to the hub?

Is it a light?

Are there closeups of how it attaches?

The light is incorporated into the bike, with the wiring routed through the fork and into the frame. Pretty slick looking bike with some cool features

Here is the info for the Urban Racer from Speedvagen

^That thing really is the ultimate goddamn rich hipster-mobile. Specifically engineered to transport 13" MacBooks to artisan coffee shops to eat avocado toast. I say that as someone who likes Vanilla/Speedvagen, coffee, and Macs.

It's one of those things where if you have the cash and bought it, would you dare to use it? I wouldn't, haha.
