A quick question about singlespeed

losidan · Nov 28, 2008

There are loads of singlespeeds being talked about and posted up...

Are they mainly fixed or run a freewheel?

SS is nearly always with freewheel....

If people are running fixed they usually shout about it.

still dont get the off-road singlespeed thing, oh dear

my jump bike is singlespeed/single brake for obvious reasons but i like at least 21 gears for mountain biking
