Thought I'd resurrect this thread and add my 2cents now that I've been riding fixed on the road for a couple of months.
My Lovely Langster is 42x16 - it's a really comfortable gear for riding gracefully round town imo - it works out about 70.
That said I've been thinking I would like the option of a spinnier fixed gear on the other side of the hub instead of the 16t freewheel.
I'm thinking a fixed/fixed hub would suit me better than the fixed/free but I don't have the cash to be sorting that just yet!
For now though, I wonder if there's any chance one of you might have a 17 or even 18 cog I could beg, borrow or buy?
Also looking for a 14 or 15 for the (rental) track bike (Dolan)
(- 49x16 is fine for training but not enough for racing I recently learned!)
Slainte daoine!
