new cheap fixie is a blast
so I ordered a kent fixie from Walmart and pit it together last night, I have the free wheel hub on. I gotta say this bike fits like a glove and I'm 6 ft. I just did a 14 mile bike trail and it was great another cheap bike but good review .

Without trying to be too pedantic, when one uses a freewheel hub, one has a single speed, but NOT a 'fixie'.
A fixed gear bike, by definition, has a fixed gear on the hub...not a freewheel.
Your Kent is not a 'fixie'.
