Q1: What do you like about fixed-gear/track bikes?
easy and convenient way of getting about town/I'm a bike whore and needed a fixed on my collection.
Q2: Do you have brakes*? front, rear, both or none?
**none **
Q3: What setup do you have on your rear hub? (mark all that apply)
- other (please specify): It's the front hub (hope xc) from a mountain bike, with disc mounts and 100mm spacing. I'm using a cog from London Fixie Bike which bolts onto the hub's disc mount, and a custom made axle and spacer, turned on a lathe which brings the spacing out to 120mm for the hub.
Q4: What DON'T you like about fixed-gear/track bikes?
Falling off (I dont do that often, so I guess there isn't anything I really dislike)
Q5: If a baker's dozen is 13, can i call a 3-day weekend a baker's weekend?
Only every second weekend of the month.
