Why? It's quite happy as it is. Really.

Because you cannot exert any backwards pressure on the pedals without risking that the top run of chain become slack. Its not really a fixed wheel. I'd be scared to ride it to be honest for fear of it throwing the chain.

Is this Cardinal reincarnate, as I don't recall him being a red GT?

 

[Rhythm Thief]

I like it. Right up my street. The paintwork is great.
I must dig the bits of my fixie out of the shed and put them back together one of these days.

Yup, that's TC. He's never been anything other than a red GT.
He's cool.
