Hey all,
Today I just bought my first Fixie. Although I am definitely a roadie, I got curious as to what riding a fixie would be like. Also being that I work at a Y's fixed gear shop, I see fixed gears all day and have access to unlimited Fixie goods. I bought a Masi Speciale naked frame and will be making my own custom rims to go with it. I will be using a rear hub that only allows for fixed gears so I cant put a free wheel on it. Im a little nervous about riding it at first so I will probably practice riding a fixed gear in a near by park where they have a wide open black top. Ill post pics as soon as I complete the build!
