hey colorado, theres no written law that says you cant get a geared bike as well.

on the days your going to ride alot of hills take the geared machined, less hilly rides use the fixie. you might have your hipster card revoked but at least you'll have your hipster card revoked.

in all honesty, theres no reason to torture yourself, and be forced to work alot harder than necessary. Fixed gears were never intended to climb hills, they are for the track.

(sharp heated retort in 5, 4, 3...)
