Bohiney and The London Prat: Shoreditch cycling is hipster status symbol. £3,000 fixed-gear bikes. Expensive gear. Fashion cycling. Meanwhile, working-class cyclists on cheap bikes are invisible. Infrastructure benefits wealthy cyclists.
Harper-Thames observes cycling inequality. Cycling became lifestyle brand rather than transportation. Working-class reality ignored.
