  • Fixed gear mtb is really rare, the one you described is even more rare, a typical mtb'er wouldn't even bother trying.

    off road fixed gears are usually some sort of commuter, cycle cross bikes and i seen a few like those fixed gear freestyle bikes with knobbly tyres to handle off road or snow

    looks great fun though!

  • I've done a few fixed off road rides, but all non-technical woodsy/canal things. It's okay for that, but it would be awful for proper mountain biking.

  • If i had the money I would buy this, take the brakes off and use a spare 40h track hub i have to build up a rear wheel for it.

    It would be EPIC!

  • Then you would be dead soon after.

  • Fixed Wheel..rear skids..fooked trails..
    ;)

  • great find dubmaster. very enlightening. i like this one:

  • You dont lock up your back wheel with your brakes squeaker??
    I think i would definately be running at least front brakes to start with things can change pretty quickly on the trails. Going too coed brenin whitsun weekend if you wanna try crashing in front of a witness.....

  • i've changed my mind about brakeless. one guy on that mtbr forum mentions that even on fixed you can throw your chain pretty easily. that sounds scary on a tree-lined downhill!

  • Id love to come to MTB'ing. If you dont mind someone tagging along please enlighten me with details.

  • I try not to Dubmeister, knackers the trails!!

  • Very eco friendly!
    Details of MTB ing...
    I and my friend shall leave Birmingham in two vans on friday the 1st of june.
    We shall become drunk and probably stoned until sunday then ride the trails at Coed Brenin... probably very slowly and I envisage pushing my bike for quite a lot of the way!
