Can you tell the difference between a fixie and just a single speed by looking? Recently I've been assuming all single speeds are fixies, and promptly making fun because I think it's the most moronic thing you could do. I get single speeds, but I dont get fixies. The green one your posted, fixie or single?

[naynay]

thats not what you planned to race me on is it? nice bike but i am pretty sure i could dig something out of the attic that will run all over that. i'll probably just borrow a bike if you really want to fun n grudge. gotta come in to dallas though. people in the country like to run over cyclists from what i've read on here.

green one is fixed. if you look at the hub you can see clearly if it has a cog or a freewheel.



another easy way to tell is RIDING IT! or watching someone ride and see if they are 1:1 or if they are coasting/back bedaling ever. my next bike i will set up freewheel, simply because of the hills where i am living now. My wife has the gold digger edition Kilo TT sitting in the attic:

I know the difference by riding, I'm just curious of appearance. So that's one of the ones you can flip the wheel from free to fixie. Clever idea. Hipster on, or hipster off.

I'll look closely next time.

nay nay you are a fucking idiot. I can guarantee I wouldn't get along with you in person.

What a fucking tard. The pic with the kid was way over the line.

I'm curious, why? If someone else posted them, would it be of issue? It is life. Outside of the whitewashing that Americans get in terms of media, the world is a fucking scary place. Travel, you'll see worse.

I know Rodney likes to go for the shock value, but for Christ's sake, it's like correcting children for being assholes to one another.

i would only ride fixed in a city setting where you need 1:1 power/speed. if you are not worried about taxi's/buses running you down i see no reason not to run it free wheeled. i pass buses willingly throughout downtown and can get 3-4 lights ahead of traffic in a matter of seconds, but coming from oak cliff into east dallas it takes a lot of wind to do it. i usually have to stop in deep ellum and regroup. then i can usually mash to and around white rock lake, and cruise back home (down hill) in about 1 hour maybe 1.25 hours. thats a solid 30 mile ride (12 miles to the lake, 9 around, 12 back (downhill/no traffic on elm street.))

heres my lake cruiser that was stolen!!
