I just wanted to know if a fixie means that there is no way that the peddles and rear wheel cannot stop each other. It's complicated, but I'm just trying to understand the idea better.
Better question, should I go fixie? I'm a single speed road bike with front a rear brakes, no special peddles and a thread on hub. If I go fixie, what do I need?
Articulate yourself better. "stop each other"? What does that even mean. The PEDALS which are connected to the crank which is connected to the drivetrain which is fixed is directly connected to the cog, so if you stop pedaling, the wheel will stop turning.
"Should I go fixie" is something that you yourself can answer, not us. God sorry I'm just upset, seriously use google and we have a newb thread for a reason!
