Fixed Gear Bike Components
- A fixed-gear bicycle (or fixed-wheel bicycle, commonly known in the USA as a fixie) is a bicycle that has no freewheel, meaning it cannot coast — the pedals are always in motion when the bicycle is moving.
a cog attached to a hub without a freewheel; it always turns with the wheel---no coasting
A direct drive system, used on track bikes, in which the chain ring and rear cog are linked, so that the pedals turn constantly while the bicycle is moving, and coasting isn't possible.
Fixed-Gear Bike Building
More and more people are converting old, grimy road bikes to sleek single-gear riders, recycling, re-painting, stripping down old parts and adapting new components. The scene is in constant growth, stretching from San Francisco to Melbourne, Tokyo and Berlin.
The customization and the building process–getting covered in grease, in other words–are essential parts of belonging to this movement. This book makes a much needed and unique contribution to the market by explaining everything in simple, easy to understand language, enabling a beginner bicycle mechanic to rebuild and convert a geared bicycle into a slick, personalized fixie.
