Fixed and single speed is something I've hardly touched in <thinks back> 30 years of bike fettling and restoration. I did have a very nice Cinelli fixed back in around 1994 but was to young and daft to make use of it.
I have a flip flop Maillard wheel and the Hill Special which ideally should be single speed or Sturmey
I'd like to try the flip flop wheel but am wondering what size rear sprocket to buy and what to match it with for a fairly flat area with around 183 metres of elevation.
I dont want to be spinning out but then I dont want my kneecaps to be fired across the wolds either.
I'll be using 3/32 chainrings, chain and rear sprocket. Sturmey do 3/32 sprockets in various sizes.
Any advice gratefully received
Thanks all.
