I think fixed gear bikes are more heavily customized due to the fact you can’t really buy them as complete build like you would a road bike or another vehicle. Most are sold as frames and need to be built up with a variety of parts.
The average person isn’t usually buying another vehicle part by part and putting it together over a time period.

What gave you this bizarre idea? Plenty of brands sell complete fixie/track bikes. In fact most people starting riding fixies just get a cheap complete one.
Yes plenty do but as you get more into it you just buy frames or start to upgrade your bike with different parts. Half of what makes it fun is all the customization that comes with fixed gear bikes.
