Hi guys,
bit of a newbie here when it comes to both fixed gear and belt drive. I've got a retro steel frame road bike which I would like to convert to a fixie/single speed. What do I need to get for for the conversion (either chain, or if possible, belt)? I've been trying to research the topic for last couple of days and when it comes to these two topics (fixed gear, belt drive) the info can be found separately, but I am yet to see some more detailed guide for a both conversion at the same time.
Oh, and I want to do it relatively cheaply, so I've been looking for used/facebook marketplace equivalent postings (OLX). (If anybody needs to know, 250 euros is the absolute maximum I can afford).
Thank you in advance. If any additional info is needed, please let me know.
(also, sorry for the crossposting. Not sure who exactly should I ask)
