I have really been enjoying my new SS bike.
It came with a flip-flop hub so today I decided to flip the flop and go fixie.
Ok that was close
My first lift off came about a mile from my house when my legs decided to stop go in circles. I almost shot off the bike.
My next pavement eating experience came when I took my first corner at speed. Thank god for high bottom brackets.
My last near get-off was when squirrel ran out in front of me
So what is the fascination on the street? And how do the messenger types stop without brakes?
The only real positive is that it felt easier to pedal as each pedal is served on a platter for the next push.
