So, the pub science...... stored energy returns and flywheel effect.
Would a heavy rear wheel increase this effect then of the drive train propelling you with even less effort when rolling.
If i took a deep rear rim, and filled it with powdered lead, would that have enough rotational mass to rip the legs off a hipsterfixie skidder when they try to stop a bit quick ? :)
