Single-speed vs fixie | Why fixed-gear bikes are ridiculous, except for these three things

I've always found the idea of using a fixed-gear bike in a city to be fundamentally absurd. But then how to explain the cult of fanatics who love fixies? To try and better understand that cult, I decided to give a fixie another try, and to give it a close comparison to the fixie's sibling, the single-speed. What I found was that, yes, fixies are fundamentally ridiculous. Except for these three things, which are helping me better understand the cult. #cycling #bike #fixed Sponsor Two Wheel Gear: My favourite bike bags for commuters and urban cyclists https://www.twowheelgear.com/ Buy my book Frostbike: The Joy, Pain and Numbness of Winter Cycling: https://rmbooks.com/book/frostbike/ I don’t really do proper product reviews, but here are some products that I’ve tried on this channel that I like.
