I have jsut got myself a single speed, and love it. Compared to geared the pleasure is noticable, it puts the joy back into cycling instead of the worry about what gear to be in, hills dont worry you because you know what is to come, as aposed to the belief in your head that it will be hard so put it in an easier gear. It means you are completely free to ride and not worry about anything else. Plus I have artheritus in one of my knees so until I have built up the strengh in that knee I cannot attempt to ride fixed
