my rear brake is all jacked so I flipped the wheel over and rode fixed to work this morning... I think I'm gonna stick with it.

don't really know why I'm posting this. But I'm also thinking about spending some $$ to get a nice freewheel and better brakes. We'll see how it plays out.

I've been thinking about going from fixed to SS. The grass is always greener.

No, it doesn't. It implies he doesn't want to ride with only one means of braking (front brake only.)
