Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Threaded to threadless stem adaptors

Anyone use them? How well do they work? Any issues with stiffness?

It's just that using one could solve some fit issues for me.

They work well. All they do is turn threadless stems into quilled stems.
