Bottom Bracket and other ideas.
I'm fairly new to biking. So, I was hoping someone could explain how the bottom bracket size is measured, like if I wanted to buy a new one. Is there a special bottom bracket for fixies or can use any one?
Secondly, is it possible to buy one of the internaly geared rear hubs and put on a fixed cog and then be running a three speed or whatever fixed gear?
