I flipped the flop...

... and didn't find it to be as much fun.

Back to the fixed side!

I was wondering why they bother making hubs threaded for a freewheel on one side, instead of the stepped threads for a fixed cog on both, since you can usually just screw a freewheel onto a hub threaded for fixed anyway?

Perhaps still useful if I'm doing a longer ride with steeper downhills, but for around town I'll keep it fixed. It's 12 miles of flat just to get to any significant hills, so maybe bring a 15 mm wrench and switch it over when i get out there!
