Converting a road bike, 6 train in a bicycle fixed gear what do I need? I've got a road bike 6 speed and want to make a fixie without changing the hub and I hope not buy many parts of the whole, what is the easiest and cheapest to do with Araya 700c 28 "rims and the early release?
There are some things to consider when converting to fixie. you will chage hub. easiest for a fixie conversion is a flip flop hub. You can buy a complete rear wheel fixie on eBay for $ 50. platform normal coats (when pedals turn are'nt) a hub does not work fixie. it would be useful if you have horizontal dropouts or track on your part as a result, it is easy to modify the chain tensioning chain breaker. You have swapped the ONEC more hubs, put one plate on the crank, put a single sprocket on the back, add your string, and u a fixie!
