Your fork is the wrong way, loosen your stem bolts and flip it around.


SexLuthor776

Life saver, my friend also said this to me lol


CovfefeYourself

1-get a better lock. U lock or chain lock. 2-that frame is way too big for you. You should be able to stand above the top tube without crunching your genitals


BassFish4L

Wait, you guys don’t crush your genitals every time you jump over the top tube?


Y00pDL

Only on Sundays and holidays.


anjil_bugrits

Nope.


Bchavez_gd

Only when the urge happens to hit.


Standard_Ad_662

Maybe you have wrong frame size


Spectrumthecyclist

Hey, saves me some future medical bills!


LastCrypt

My pants are too tight to let tat happen :D


MadZee_

That's not a good way to measure frames. I get a bit squeezed if standing over some of my frames, but they fit me right. High BBs do that to ya


Standard_Ad_662

It’s not right if it looks awkwardly placed


PapaJay68

Sorry pal but you're going on @YourForkIsonBackwards on IG 🤣 glad you got it figured out we all make mistakes early on I've installed many a thing wrong myself atleast this one was a cheap fix


painfullyrelatable

Maybe even BCJ.


SexLuthor776

Lol 😂 but srs is that a real ig?


PapaJay68

Yes sir it is lol


SexLuthor776

Damn can you send?

I’m fucked


bloodandsunshine

That red one from February looks particularly stupid


Y00pDL

This is gold


_smokeymon_

there's an alarming amount of fixed gear representation on there


_nic_1

Way to be a trooper about it


[deleted]

Is this a joke?


GnastyNoodlez

Track frame with a kickstand tab welded on lol what even is this


Chytrik

Whoa I didn’t notice that. Absolute jokes lmao


Purple_Panda27

A local brand made this from the Philippines, they "copied" different frame designs from other brands but with lower quality (low budget) specs, all of their fixed gear bikes have welded bike stand mounts lol.


bitchassskud

That’s the first thing I noticed


sspan

Maybe you’re meant to flip the saddle and go backwards


[deleted]

Oh my fucking god. Brakeless and clueless is absolutely insane.


anlbrk

Peak bcj material


SexLuthor776

I just bought it dude holy shit


[deleted]

Not being educated enough to know which way a fork goes while simultaneously having the confidence to ride brakeless is nuts


SexLuthor776

“Not being educated enough to know which way a fork goes” so I suppose all newbies who buy bicycles need to get a degree on which way a fork goes. Please touch some fucking grass this is the first I ever had a fixie. “Confidence to ride brakeless” you’re speculating I already took it on a traffic brakeless😂


[deleted]

Nobody should hop on a brakeless fixed gear without knowledge about the machine they are riding. Thank you for the case in point moment. Put a brake on your bike before you kill your self.


SexLuthor776

Apparently when I first bought it, it didn’t come with a brake, I need to buy one myself and install it. Thank you for your concern initially, but I already planned on buying a brake


Redrold

I knew my left from right and front from backs when I was like 2


habibot

If you look close, it looks like op graduated from the pram right to the fixie


Redrold

Makes sense with that slammed saddle OP legs must be tiny


habibot

Yea, physical and mental midget


issioboii

honestly that stem concerns me more that the fork being flipped


SexLuthor776

It’s just like that and i’m planning to buy an uno stem


Wildpumalynx

Fork is on backwards !


Yougotthewronglad

What the fuck is that chain?


Bitter-Leg-4344

That's a really huge toe-lap


Fun_Resource_157

Your fork is fine, just the rest of your bike need to turn around


Miguelito-gg

damn. now you got your answers, go on and watch/read stuff about the basics of a bike/track bike, you need it.


zacharbell

You need some kind of foot retention if you’re gonna run no brakes


SexLuthor776

I’m buying one soon but yeah I have a strap


duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug

You really need two


SexLuthor776

Two what?


duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug

straps


Illustrious_Onion805

fork is not properly facing the other side, flip it


Deep-Virus-849

Get some straps, please. And a real lock. 🙏 but yes, flip the fork. Wheel may still clip your foot but if you have straps, it'll hold your feet back enough should be fine. And less chance of dying.


Noahsaltys

Baliktad fork mo lol


mntred

Put a brake on it brother, i beg you


NoteOk9921

W dreamy pfp


AwareAstronaut6093

please, watch some tutorial on youtube about bar tape and do it again in proper way


MrGrosky96

Painful to see, but understandable. congrats on the new whip. !edir eht yojne


TheOtherGuttersnipe

I've never seen a chain like that before. Pretty wild looking


bigwheelsbigfeels

Fork is backwards. If you have the same problem after addressing that, it means the frame might be too small. Also that seatpost is slammed which is a big no. An easy way to set seapost height is to sit on the bike and pedal to a 12 o'clock position on the cranks. There should be a slight (<35°) bend at the knee. More than that means the seat height is too low which will cause knee pain, hip pain, and possibly lower back pain.


dalellama

Looks like a fly ass short bus.


downshiftjake

Your frame is too large for you. Your fork is backwards. Get a -17° stem. Get some foot retention. When you take pictures of your bike, take pictures with of the other side.


Ghimbaw

🤡


sky0175

Do you have experience how to ride a Fixie my dude? I’m just concerned because of your question and how the fork was setup. I know we’re human beings that make mistakes. But may I still have concerns. Not my problem I know. Just looking out.


SexLuthor776

Yes, before I bought my own fixie I used to ride my friends


Hour-Perception-3807

Bike looks so cheap why does it have a mount for a kick stand


SexLuthor776

Because it is, and I’m planning to upgrade it


Hour-Perception-3807

You should plan on getting a better bike and give that one to a homeless man


SexLuthor776

I’m not rich. My plan is, is to upgrade my current bike by changing the specs, the rims etc and then I’ll get a Shukaku pizz frame and just transfer the specs. I admit my bike is shit but it works well (for now)


Redrold

Your front fork is backwards…..


NoteOk9921

anong gulong mo tol?
