Fixless in Seattle
I've been reading alot about Fixies lately and have some interest in them. However, when you think about the traditional uses... velodromes, flat city bike messengers, some commuting... I wonder how good they are for a HILLY city like Seattle or San Francisco. I hear Bike Smith in Ballard has developed a two speed hub for that reason, but then you have to have a shifter again and it kinda defeats the purpose anyway. Anyone else been thinking about this?
