Need Help Choosing The Right Bikesdirect.com Single Speed/Fixie for me
Hi, new to this forum... any and all help is appreciated!
I would like to buy a single speed/fixed gear bike from Bikesdirect but there does not seem to be a lot of answers to my questions available online.
The primary factors that I am considering before purchase are weight, quality, price, and ease of customization; in that order with varying flexibility.
On bikes direct I have a few options I would like to consider:
Mercier Kilo TT Pro or TT Stripper
Motobecane Fixe Cafe or Cafe CF
Dawes Streetfighter, SST Steel or SST AL
Windsor Clockwork Plus
The look of all of these bikes is comparable. Of these, I could only verify the weight of the Cafe CF (via YouTube review) of around 22 lbs.
Does anyone have any opinion of these bikes versus one another? I have been riding mountain bikes primary for decades and I am new to the Fixie game. I would primarily use this for city riding and commuting and it should see a fair amount of miles.
Any input is appreciated.
Also, seeing as I am new to this I would also appreciate any info about other bikes (bikes possibly available at my LBS OR even Amazon) that factor in the options that I list above.
Thanks in advance!
