what would be the point? havent you ever built something, and then sold or given it away because the point is the process not the end?

Word to that.
Also remeber that a two speed fixed is more about (and was originally marketed towards) club riders for winter training, just keeping the legs moving was the point, not allowing yourself to be lazy, and two brakes would be use for braking not skidding.[/quote]
+1 for tinkering just to tinker
and tommy i believe you are referring to the elusive sa 3 speed fixed hubs created for that purpose, but only a a small number, if any still exist today. i think that the 2 speed version was a diy way of getting the benefits of the 3 speed.
