sketchy fixed gears
Anyone else riding a beater/sketchy set up? I ride an old 70s Apollo conversion with a suicide hub (just used red loctite, no lockring, didn't redish the wheel) and a quick release rear wheel. I have a brake, wouldn't ride this ghetto set up with out it. I've got seven bikes, including a fairly nice road bike, so I converted my old apollo for a cheap as possible for something rip around town on. It' been 8 months or so and I've yet to have any problems, I can skid and the loctite holds fine, I doubt I would ever be able to take the cog of the wheel.
I want to hear about other peoples sketchy set ups. I'll try and remember to take a picture of mine and post it here.
