Built up a fixed recently and had first proper fixed ride in about 8 years. Didn't notice it being any harder than before. Went for a nice low gear in the high 60s. Did get some fatigue afterwards, but suspect that's just coming through COVID and not riding for about 3 weeks. I remember sometimes before when I rode fixed finding the nagging continual drivetrain a bit tiring, but I wonder if that was more a bike fit issue, plus a need to work a bit on flexibility/ core strength.
