For me, the hype isn’t just hype—it’s lived reality. Every day I cut through traffic, slip through gaps no car dares, and feel the city’s pulse under my wheels. A geared bike will get you moving, sure. But on a single speed or fixed-gear, you don’t just ride—you become part of the ride. You’re stripped of excess, left only with legs, lungs, steel, and street. That’s where the magic is.
Connection, Not Just Motion
Single speed and fixed-gear bikes share a single gear. But the fixed-gear is something deeper—no coasting, no freewheeling. If the wheel spins, your legs spin. Stop pedalling, and the bike reminds you who’s in charge. Far from clumsy, that connection feels alive. It roots you to the road, teaches balance, and gives you the kind of flow no derailleur can deliver.
The Street Is Your Playground
Fixies let you play with the street. Track stands at traffic lights, skid stops that echo like punctuation marks, even rolling backward when the city tests your patience. These aren’t just tricks—they’re survival skills in the urban jungle. While others unclip and put their feet down, you hold your ground, waiting to sprint when the light turns green. That confidence is pure freedom.
Speed, Strength & Simplicity
What else? They’re fast. Strip away gears, derailleurs, and clutter, and you’ve got a machine lighter and more efficient than most road bikes. Every watt you push goes straight to the wheel. But speed doesn’t come cheap—you’ve got to spin, and spin hard. In return, you gain not just fitness, but a rhythm of effort that feels like meditation at high cadence.
The Beauty of Minimalism
Single speeds? They’re the calmer cousin, still carrying the same clean lines and reliability. With fewer moving parts, they hardly ever fail you. That’s why messengers worldwide trust them: fewer things to break when life is already demanding. And the looks—sleek, stripped-down, no nonsense. Even a black frame speaks louder than a rainbow of gears.
Two Bikes in One
The best part? You don’t even have to choose. Thanks to flip-flop hubs, one bike can be both. Fixed cog on one side, freewheel on the other. Wake up one morning ready to coast, or flip the wheel and face the streets head-on. That’s the beauty of one gear—simplicity, adaptability, and freedom.
That’s the hype. But for me, it’s more than hype—it’s philosophy. One gear, many roads.
