is it possible to have multiple gears on a fixed gear bike? has anyone done this before? i know it kinda goes against the whole "simplicity and low maintenance" philosophy of fixed gear bikes and all, just one of those "what if" things..

you could run the cable along the top tube and use velcro straps like i've seen some people do to run a rear brake on frames without brazons.. not sure how well it would work though
