Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

The LBS owner took this picture of me as I was going home a few days ago with my bikes, not a very good quality though.


And theres this one, from a road ride I did with a friend of mine, 100 kilometers, on a very hot day, with some incredibly strong head winds.

you can lower the stem and/or get a longer stem to increase your reach if you feel you need it.

Only thing missing right know is the new stem, Is this riding set up can cause knee pain or it's something else?

This can happen https://www.floota.com/vastus_mediali...e_popping.html

It happened to me when I just got into cycling and didn't know any better.

That bike looks to small. Maybe test ride a 58cm and see how that goes. Might be worth it to switch, or get something with a longer tt
