I've heard kids talk bout hyouma's bike and i was curious so i searched it, how is that possible, is his front rim 650cc to fit that quill under his fork, and is the headset gonna hold that quill,
ive never read windbreaker
This could technically work the quill doesn’t hold onto to headset tho it holds onto the fork I will try this and update with results

This will work, saw somebody do this on a bike forum a couple of years ago. Yes, you will need to replace the front wheel with a 650c wheel and have a fork that’s 22.2mm on the inside through the whole length.

I don’t think you can just flip the quill stem. You’ll need a specific fork like the image. Ask r/fixedgearbicycle for more information.
this seems stupid and i absolutely love the idea lmao
