Hello Johnny

In fact at first I don't intend to ride fixed but singlespeed with a freewheel. I commute a minimum of 40kms/day (sometime clearly more) and 1/3 of my road is a very steep climb (or descent depending the way...) so I'll start with a freewheel and later, far later, if i feel confident enough...
It's the reason why I wan to set up my bike the way I set up my road bikes.
