I like! My two good fixies had flip-flop hubs that i flip often I carry Pedros "Trixie"s on each. (On mountain days, I also carry a chainwhip and at hilltops, swap the big cog for a 12 or so. The lockring spanner on the Trixie comes into play!)

Edit: Consider gifting your Trixies with Trixies, (Very good on hub nuts, great lockring spanner.)
