having just picked up a kettler, i can say for sure that at least the 'air navigator' model is, in fact, sort of a hybrid...

you can freewheel like a singlespeed, but if you apply back-pressure, a ratchet engages in that direction as well and re-locks the cranks to the wheel so you can apply further back-pressure. there is also a stick-style hand brake.

My friend told me his friend is selling this bike, I just wanted to know what you guys think? I'm not buying, just in terms of how nice the bike is, worth the price, whatever whatever.

^ So typical, King headset, Thomsons, Sugino 75, Veeps to Phil...the usual over-priced bling bike.

This frame is actually extremely tempting for me though...

If somebody is funding me, I would be rebuilding it but then I realized that bike is too fancy for me.

Well my friend you are between a rock and a hard place. You convert it and you're a hipster dbag. If you don't then you're a closet roadie with no real love for fixies. I'd tell you just buy a sputnik.
