I do ride a fixie, a Bianchi super pista to be exact, which is why I can still mash with the best of them at either the velodrome or on the street. As much as I ride, I still take the time to charge up the batteries and change the cells on my shifters. Again, running out of batteries has never been a concern on my etap bike. If i forget to charge my batteries, I have 3 other steeds running full mech from U8600 to DA9100 to Red22.
