First fixed gear bicycle aquired!!
The previous owner was ignorant to what fixed gear meant so I was suprised to see a double freewheel setup installed when I bought it. Had to replace the back wheel to this Mach1 Touring I found online (didn't want to spend too much on a new hobbie…)
Total Cost: About 330EUR, which I think is fair considering the parts and condition.
The rear brake will come off eventually, I've been riding it for a few days and as I get the hang of riding fixed gear I realize it is quite useless indeed.
I welcome opinions on the bike and upgrade sugestions either practical or aesthetic!!
Thank you all for the info on the sub!
