Had my new steed just under a week now, been riding it single speed until today. Decided it was time to flip the rear wheel and go Fixed! What a weird feeling, trying to remember when coming to junctions, traffic lights etc that I no longer have the freewheel, trying to get my pedal possition in the 3 and 9 o'clock possitions when at a standstill, bit of thinking mans peddling is required. I think its gonna be a bit of a learning experience.
Have found the toe clips pretty much impossable to get my feet under so think I will be investing in a pair of touring type shoes and whack on a set of SPD peddles, any recomendations would be much appreciated.
Once mastered I think this is gonna be a lot of fun!
Cheers Sean
