  • Via some key cycling personalities, this short movie develops ideas surrounding the fixed gear scene and biking community of Montreal. The viewer is introduced to various characters from the Montreal fixed gear communities including shop owners, musicians, restaurant owners, corporate commuters, politicians, messengers and more. The personality and passion of each character is developed through interviews with supporting imagery. Each character is chosen to represent a different story and viewpoint regarding the quickly growing fixed gear culture of Montreal with the main objective of challenging the viewer's perceptions surrounding cycling. The viewer creates conclusions and question their understanding of urban biking as an efficient means of municipal transportation and art.

    Via certains protagonistes cyclistes, ce court-métrage développe des idées autour de la scène cycliste à pignon fixe de Montréal. Ces derniers sont des propriétaires de magasin, restaurateurs, coursier à vélo, politiciens et cyclistes. La personnalité et la passion de chacun se développent à travers des entrevues et images éloquentes. Ils sont choisis afin de présenter leurs propres histoires et points de vue à propos de la culture cycliste à pignon fixe de Montréal qui grandit à une vitesse folle. Ses mêmes propos ont pour but de créer une ouverture sur le sujet et sur l'utilisation du vélo en général. Le spectateur crée donc ses propres conclusions et peut ainsi remettre en question sa compréhension du vélo en milieu urbain comme un moyen efficace de transport municipal et d'expression artistique.

    I have been biking for a year now to commute to work and school. I have saved a lot of time, money, and lost weight. In addition I motivated more than 10 friends to bike and notice an increase use of bikes in my neighbor especially young kids. Way to go

    My personal inner city ride is something I wish I had when I was a courier.
    A light weight 92 Rocky Mountain Team Comp with Tange Ultimate Ultralight tubing, a triple butted Kona P2 fork 8 speed with Suntour Thumb shifters and XTR V brakes on Mavic Cross rides with 1.1" Michelin slicks. Why is it good for city? Its both light and strong and the 26" wheels both spin up and stop quickly, especially with V brakes-I stop on a dime. The geo is both fast and stable and being lower, I can flick it about very easily, and I can jump curbs and hit stairs without worrying about bending a wheel. The gearing is also great for city with an 11-28 and a 46 big ring, I can go plenty fast enough. I get some weird looks from the fixie crowd though. not getting any cool points but old school messengers give it props.

    I hope to see more of video documentaries from women and their perspective to personal feelings about bicycling. A large portion of show and tell about the world of cycling mainly comes from men. I still believe that there is way too much gender biases in what a woman can do when it comes to lifestyle and activity choices.

    I don't think riding a fixie makes you a hipster. Fixies were around way before messengers in north America put claim to them. Riding a fixed gear on the street without a brake however, unless you are actually a messenger and or you race the velodrome, does make you a hipster in my opinion in that you're trying to imitate something you're actually not apart of. Even messengers riding brakeless fixed who've never ridden on the track I kind of squint at.
    That's the main advantage of riding brakeless fixed is that it's a bike that you can go to work on as a courier if you know how to ride it and you can after work or on the weekends race on a velodrome without needing to modify your bike or get a second bike.
    Most messengers I know ride a double brake singlespeed or a double brake fixie/front brake fixie or cargo bike. Riding brakeless fixed is not common with messengers in my city I only know 1 or 2 that do it out of 30.

    Say "psychic benefits" again.Jeez I should be a bike messenger, im always cycling through my busy town fast dealing with people and traffic and have never had an accident. :DLooks good in the sun Part of me thinks these guys are douchebags and give cyclists a bad name and part of me thinks it's awesome. New York looks like a zoo anyway. Gotta say, this is the only bike vid I've seen in recent memory with any decent music. man now I want a brooks saddle and move to Seattle Washingtonvery in depth documentary, worth every second What do you think about that ?You are not alone. :)I just started riding a bike again, I have literally no knowledge on them other than they have two wheels and goes forward when i pedal. I just watched this video and am now confused and worried as hell. How often do problems like the ones described in the video occur? I don't have the money to take my bike to a shop all the time to have this stuff done, nor the tools. I'm hoping after watching it again I can do some of this myself but am still worried about the frequency of these issues and how I will figure out if something is wrong.What do you think about that ?Are those drop handlebars or moustache type at 16:25 - 16:30 or so?They are both thinking about how difficult it would be to have sex with each other.Blood Sweat and Gears Part 1 of 7My personal inner city ride is something I wish I had when I was a courier.A light weight 92 Rocky Mountain Team Comp with Tange Ultimate Ultralight tubing, a triple butted Kona P2 fork 8 speed with Suntour Thumb shifters and XTR V brakes on Mavic Cross rides with 1.1" Michelin slicks.

    there is, still, unfortunately, a to big lobby from the car industry at the moment and many jobs depending from it. :(
    Anyway, here in Brussels I'm seeing more and more people choosing to bike on very regular way, and this is great!
