What tricks are possible with a fixed wheel that are not with a freewheel?
Multiple backwards circles are very difficult on a freewheel but other that I can't see much. Even I can manage one backwards circle on a freewheel. I suppose the trackstand tricks but they are a bit rubbish. I think if I had a fixed trick bike setup I'd run flip flop with a rear brake just for the extra fun /possibilities.
