Oh yeah:
It's a fixed gear, fixed hub, stiff hub, fixed wheel, please.
Fixie puts one into drug culture wordage where I come from.
If you're going to use bikes as they've been used for over100 years, try to
keep a little tradition and observe the proprieties.
Then you will keep us old geezers happy, your're doing your thing, and we're
on your side.
Win-win-win.
I like it.
