Fix
The proper term for a single gear fixed wheel bicycle. These bikes were traditionally home made by the users; they would take a traditional 10 speed frame toss out the hanging derailleur and remove the 5 speed fly wheel and replace it with a single speed "fixed" hub. These bikes were most popular among NYC bike messengers in the 70's, 80s, and early 90's because of their low maintenance and lighter weight; many users would have only a front brake or forgo brakes totally because you can control the bikes momentum solely suing your feet. These bikes were not for the lazy or lighthearted because they require a much more skilful and alert riding style as well as perpetual motion because the is no "free" spin mode. The Fix could be brought out right in those days at some bike stores by asking for a racing bike. Racing bikes were usually made by Bianchi or Lotus and sported rear facing dropouts for the back wheel; these store bought Fix bikes were uncommon for the average fix rider and primarily purchased by bike messengers. The majority of serous road bike riders, then and now, use geared bikes. Today people are calling bikes like this "Fixies"; there was no such term ( fixie ) being used on the streets in 1970's thru early 90's. Fixie should be used to describe store bought bicycles many of which do not even have fixed flywheels.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Loved this mug! So unique and you can edit the text to add something unique.
I gave it to my friend who took money from me and never returned.
I love the fact that I was able to customize my name since I've never been able to find anything with my name. The only downside is it's smaller than I thought it would be (I guess I didn't pay much attention to that), wish it was bigger, only about 10 oz total.
It's simply awesome; and plus, the word means a lot.
Really fast and looks great! Took a chance on Christmas gift and it was a success!
Awesome mug feels really nice good weight and color although I think the shade could be a little brighter when it comes to the highlighter yellow, I am still pleased with the outcome and the fact that a whole passage was so neatly printed onto the product, very pleased with the packaging too! That made it so easy to wrap just in time for Christmas. Who knew!!
okay so the mug was mid but when you have a genz meme and give it to one of the most serious people you know then it's pretty funny
Nice mug, great feel‼️
Perfect!
Good quality ceramic cup! Worth the novelty price!
Perfect gift for my gf
Looks great! Came quick
Gave it to my nerd brother. He used it consume liquid
Love it
as a fan of non-Z-generation-UD (since 2000 more or less) , especially of old-school definitions ("phat!") (as Nick, the more time passes by, the more I reach my inner age = 75 XD) , I totally appreciated the delivery in time for Christmas! (whispering) Perhaps printing quality in the Spain printing company is not as good as in the US, but - hey! - I got it before Christmas as a gift for my thank-God-non-Gen-Z-sister! ;) hugs from the eighties, and from Italy, and thanks!

This is SO cool. Morning coffee will always memorialize my new addition to the English lexicon.
Too inappropriate
