They are both fixed and run 26 inch wheels... the gearing is pretty low compared to my other fixed / ss bikes because they are more utilitarian.

Bike #1 has a flip flop with an ss cog on the flip side and is geared low enough for winter riding and light off roading. The blue anodized stem is the stock stem the bike came with.

I am in the process of rebuilding the drive on #2 with a half step and dual fixed cog to give it more range for long rides. I have done centuries on this bike with no issues.
