WolfThawra on January 8, 2026 8:05 am Langsters are good fixed gear frames but it doesn’t look like there’s any special parts on that bike, so I think the price is a bit optimistic.
Namerunaunyaroo on January 8, 2026 8:46 am I mean if you want to do it go for it. But if you a new to bikes I’d caution against a fixy. Depending on your area and fitness they can be a PITA. Get a geared bike, build some fitness and develop a love of the sport. That will get you cycling consistently. Sorry if this disagrees with you, in my mind a fixy is an n+1 bike.
