You could be anywhere in the 59/60 cm to 63+cm(I know there are many other measurements to think about, just giving barebones) range depending on your build. I always reccommend that people go single speed before going geared or fixed. Riding fixed without knowledge is dangerous, riding geared without a base of knowledge derived from practice is a waste.
Oh for sure, I been riding geared bike for a while and I got to try fixed geared bike from my friends. I really don't care if it's fancy or not, I was wondering what kind of builds/companies for someone who's kind of heavy haha.
