To me, that last part of the sentence is nonsense.
As for the "SS is different'' I say... cut your derraileur cable in any bike and there you are.
(Sorry for the off-topic BTW)
I'm wondering about this too. What specifically is more "fun" about singlespeed vs. keeping your derailleur bike in the same gear all the time. I don't get it. I'm not criticizing, I'm just asking. I take it the bike is just a singlespeed with brakes. So how is it any different than riding a geared bike in that same gear all the time?
