Well, my new fixed gear bike is on the way
Well, my new fixed gear bike is on the way
(thanks Sheldon). As this is my first fixed gear, I've got more than a couple of questions. The main one is, what do people recommend for pedals? I'm using Look/Campy style pedals on my road bike. I understand that double sided pedals may be a better choice on a fixed gear--due to the need to get quickly clipped in to a bike with no freewheel. I've got a pair of Speedplay X-1's that I am ok with; seems like the extra float might help while I get used to and adjust the new bike. Any suggestions? Cheers ~~~ ~ _@ ~~ ~ _- \, ~~ (*)/ (*) |

Time MTB, eggbeaters or SPDs with recessed cleats on MTB shoes - nice to be able to walk up those tougher hills? Donga |
