I don't get the hate tbh, I'm nervous to ever ride one myself but you can get going SO FAST, and they're cheap and easy to maintain. I think people used to hate on brakeless ones as a hipster thing tho. I used to ride a single speed and had someone yell at me from their car something stupid because they thought it was fixed lol.
