Fixed Gear BMX

TheBrick(Tommy) Coaster brake has a brake when you back pedal. A FREEcosaster dose not. They started off as people taking the brake out of a coasterbrake hub and filling the gap with washers.

BMX racing never had fixed rear wheels to my knowledge. BMX racing would be hampered by having a fixed rear wheel. BMX means Bicycle motorcross and originally there was quite often alot of riding through mud as well as over obstacles round a short circuit.

Ok I accept that I may be talking our of my arse. Well I'd like to try it! And fall off a lot I guess. I suppose it would be difficult to launch off humps without being able to stop pedalling.
