Fixed Gear Bikes Need Less Maintanance
Unlike new bikes on the road, a fixie doesn't have much moving parts so maintenance is a breeze.
2
You Can Stand In Place
When you stop at a light instead of having to put your foot down you can do a track stand where you balance on your bike with both feet on your pedal. Freaking awesome
3
You can Ride Backwords
Not much usefulness here, but oh so much fun.
4
Weighs Less so Easy to Carry
With less parts the bike weighs left making it ideal for lifting up and down your stairs.

Chicks Dig It
Girls love fixed gears. I don't know what it is about them. Maybe that they streamline, maybe that they are dangerous, or maybe because they take skill to ride.
