clearly you need to realize that bikes aren't ridden in vacuums on rollers.

At some point, the OP will hit some kind of terrain, and all of the efficiency of not having gears is lost.

its hard to picture this, lol

It's pretty easy and very satisfying. Guy in back holds onto the shoulders or hips of guy in front, and we move in sync.

If you are going to commute but want the look of a fixed gear, why not try one of the five speed Kilos or a bike with an S3X?

You guys are awesome.

Btw so what makes up for the bike the track or the wheelset?

gigantor 03-30-12 02:14 AM

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking

Yes. I omitted the word frame I'm half asleep but I mean what makes it as fast, what's the main component. I know everyone matters. But what matters the most?

Only when you accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior will your bike truly be fast. Praise Jesus, and the podiums will follow.

and non-white wheels.

I could care less for something that doesn't exist. If I told you I saw a fairy would you believe that too?

Can I have some dust so that I may fly to meet my friend Peter Pan?
