• Free wheels give you the option to rest, thus not making you use the gears you have in your legs as much.

    Also I still don't understand why anyone even mentions anything but fixed gear / single speed bikes on this forum?! I was not aware that had joined a cycling BS forum at any point.

    This is the LFGSS HHSB thread and I'll put rotors on any English threaded track frame I choose! Wrong thread and the wrong forum on both counts...

    While fixed is fun it is also very limiting.

    Like comparing a salt flat racer to a family car.

    A single gear is not long enough. Either you top out prematurely or can't get the fucker going. (Maybe fine for the urban warrior with gears in his legs)

    Until some bright spark makes a variable fixed transmission of course.

    Even then, a free hub and brakes will still
    allow more variation. (Downhilling at 70 mph for example)

    HTFU/CSB etc
