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)

But "buddy".. this is the internet where everyone can be an expert. Do I find it a bit convenient you've ridden a motorcycle every day for the last 10 years? A bit yes. You never once asked about my riding experience, nor do I feel like telling you because it's like throwing a paper airplane upwind.

if you ride a SS the back brake would be better. if your front brake locks up your ****ed as far as staying on your bike. actually. id run both brakes
