I can't believe I'm reading this. Changing gears has nothing to do with speed. Watt for watt, a fixed gear bike will always be faster on flat ground and in calm air. All that gears on a bike do is make it easier to match the rider to the conditions he or she is riding in.
If you manage to match those conditions on a fixed gear bike, you will be faster than on a road bike.
