Just a thought; if anyone here is riding fixed / brakeless, have you noticed a detrimental affect on your knees causing problems for running?
No, I do the holy trinity of things that are allegedly bad for knees:-
- I ride fixed (including 600km+ hilly Audaxes with 8000m+ climbing)
- I run (on pavements/roads)
- I play 5-a-side football on astroturf
Obviously the wrong pedal setup could affect your knees, a bad running gait could affect your knees, the wrong support type of shoe could affect your knees, etc.

Yes and no. I've never had a problem caused from fixed/ss/big gears, but it will, and does, and did, exacerbate any problem that I pick up in other pursuits.
