turns out that the freewheel at the crank/chain ring will work with a fixed gear at the rear.. the chain will always be turning but the pedals will stay still.. there is a slight form of friction coming from the crank when the chain is turning it but its definitely not turning the actual motor, i'm just a little curious where the friction is coming from exactly.... might just be because the system is still new and not worn in just yet.
