Thanks for the suggestions but I can't find anything on craigslist which is under $150 or in working condition. Do you think this bike would be alright:

Any brand new bike that costs $157 is going to be shit. Why not save and spend more to get something that will last. Or save, buy a beater and then fix it up.

you could just wait and find a bike in the trash then use that $150 to fix it up. you could go to a flea market or yard sale and spend 20 bucks on a bike. anything that comes from wal mart will most likely be shit.

needed to start riding a bike for physical therapy, so i fixed up the mongoose mountain bike i got when i was 13 and hadn't ridden since i started skating. other than an uncomfortable seat, it rides pretty well in my opinion. i even spray painted the bike a flat black so i don't look like the type of person to ride a mongoose bike.

My bike is patriotic looking with the red/white/blue color scheme. It's disgusting to me and I was thinking about painting it like this kid:

My bike is a mountain bike I got for Christmas or something years ago from Walmart. So, I don't give a shit about using some cheap spray paint on a $100 bike. My one concern is whether it works or not. I really don't care if the paint will chip off and don't want to take it apart to spray paint it.

2009 Bianchi Pista Steel with a front brake for long journeys. I'm about to switch the wheelset to a Velocity 700c Deep V set.

just picked this up about a month ago. It's a Specialized Globe 1 and is a joy to ride. Being a Honda/VW nerd, 'less is more' is the motto and this bike is just that. Also, it's a flip hub so once my balls drop I might change it to fixed.

My ass and balls are beyond sore. I will never bike more than a mile without a better seat or something. Does anyone know of good seat pads because I was thinking of getting this.

they're amazing and mold to your butt creating the perfect seat. Those pad things are lame and don't actually do anything.

padding doesn't necessarily make a seat any better.  the most comfortable seats i've had barely have padding at all.

I sometimes ride my bike 20 miles home from work and it kills my balls and taint. I need a seat cover bad.

You probably have a Bianchi, or some other legit bike. That would probably explain why you have had better seats. Mine is some old, Walmart bike, which I'm grateful for. However, I got what what I paid for.

Obviously, I can't afford a new seat because I'm riding a Walmart bike. So, I was looking for an alternative such as a seat pad. I  agree with you that padding wouldn't necessarily make a seat any better. I would at least need a seat capable of supporting all of my fat ass. And, I would probably need something that is molded for my balls. That is why I was looking at the Bell seat pad with memory foam.

I have a weak ass soft tail MTB I got as a teenager and it's so frustrating to ride that it turned me off of biking all together. I was thinking of getting a better bike for a long time but couldn't justify spending more money on a bicycle than my car cost.

But now I moved a decent biking distance away from my workplace and got some money as a graduation present for buying a new bike. I'd been looking at these hipster-faggot-fixies for a while and then I saw this in a shop window and fell in love.



I rode it for an hour in the rain to get it home from the shop and I was grinning the whole time.

My ass is pretty sore now though, I hadn't pedaled for almost a year before this. I'll try to get my confidence and physique up a bit and then I'll flip the flop to the fixed gear side.

^what is that?




I ended up having to ride fixed yesterday. My 26" bmx was out of commission. It's seriously a way less chill and annoying way to ride a bike, but it's still kinda fun.

Yeah, it's a GT Gutterball. I guess the road-racer/messenger scene would regard it as a cookie-cutter-fashion-fixie, but I'm not looking to ride triathlons with it, just make the daily commutes more interesting.

Dude you should, it's the best bike decision I've ever made. You look extra tight and it's easy to jump shit on.

Look around at all the bikes on this site and get hyped.
