Flip flop hubs aren't necessarily fixed/free. They can be fixed/fixed or free/free. I'll also say that if someone has no idea what they're doing and ask question #2, they're probably better off at an LBS than the internet. That way we can afford the "My bike was just delivered is it too big/small for me?" threads.
