what would you say top speed of a single speed bike is, since the rear cog is small and so is the front?
what about hills too, isnt that a pain in the butt?
Riding ss or fixed has nothing to do with speed. Some things in life can be appreciated in their simplest forms. You can only find this out for yourself. If you have the 'right element' in your personality, you'll love it on your first ride. Most all people who try riding fixed for the first time don't even care for it or cannot understand the concept of pushing only one gear and not being able to coast. And only a tiny few that try immediately click with the idea.
