I've only ridden a single speed, but my thoughts on a fixed gear are that it's possible to improve your stroke a bit, but it's also possible to completely screw up your stroke.
Power tests showed me that it wasnt anywhere near a proper road bike for training.
and it does make your pedal stroke extremely lazy!
