Show me your fixed gear bikes. Any fixed wheel bicycle is allowed.

[Grant]

If you have a fixed gear, or fixed gears. Post them here. Any bike is allowed, as long as it has a fixed cog. Only post your own bikes. Bikes can be extremely vintage or a brand new model. This thread is good for some fixed gear inspiration.

Here's one. Flip flop hub with a man's gear and a woman's gear. I ride fixed for working on my pedaling and reverse for gravel grinding.

Old klunker Columbia Topedo with homemade rear wheel. I bolted a sprocket to the large flange of Schwinn front hub.
2nd setup with front sprocket matchup is really nice gearing ...Stevil

Not vintage, 2007 Surly Steamroller. It has a flip/flop fixed and freewheel on the rear. I'm a wimp so I have it on the freewheel

That's the Cape Fear River in North Carolina in the background.

These pics show that a fixed gear doesn't have to be a road or track bike.

Been riding it nearly 100 miles a week on average. Most recent upgrade is a 52t chainring and Phil 17t cog, so hopefully I’ll get more than 600 miles out of a rear tire now.

That Lotus is nice.

That Lotus is nice.

Thanks.
good eye!
1983 Eclair
it was a rusty and neglected bike when I got it, originally white and blue.
I saved what I could, and then painted it with a spray can (I tried to match the color of my first car, a rusty beat up 1973 Plymouth Fury Station wagon).
I may have to strip and paint it again as the paint is not very durable.
It is a nice smooth ride on 35mm tires.

If it is still there, I would like to get the green bike in this picture. It is a track style frame.

That look like it would make a nice path racer type build.
