Yeah I feel like most of you guys have that preference. Not just because it’s less hassle, but also probably much more affordable and less risky. ---

Bc Apollo pro / signature series. I’ve been so obsessed lately getting modern responsives and thought I might go back in time a bit. There’s something special about the older generation of fixies that is really pleasant to throw. It’s a tiny bit lighter and narrower than the normal Apollo and I quite like it. Might have to sell off my normal Apollo now. ---
