I daily ride an intentionally shitty / beat up looking single speed just so that it won't get stolen and still I have these guys at least once a week trying to hobby talk it out with me. Sometimes I think I should just try to sell it out of one of these conversations. Like the thieves know it isn't worth shit, but the downtown rich kids / middle aged office warriors think it's retro cool as hell.
Dude use this opportunity to convert downtown rich kids and middle aged office warriors into the riding shitty singlespeeds, it'll radicalize them in 0 time
The "fuck this hill" to "hmm maybe this city could use more light rail lines and increased service windows" pipeline
Honestly yeah, should be required along with a year of service industry work
