Is a Fixed Gear Bike and a Road Bike Different?


IF they are different, Do Fixed gear bikes cost more?
whats the difference?

im thinking about getting another.

A fixed gear bike may or may not be a road bike. Traditionally, most of them are, but fixed gear mtn bikes and cyclo-cross type bikes have recently become more popular and are probably more common. Fixed gear bikes were originally mainly designed for velodrome racing where braking is not as important and allowed for trackstands to be done, etc. They have now spread to the other branches of cycling. Cyclists sometimes use fixed gear bikes as an alternative method of training.

The cost is usually less, but they are generally harder to find. Your selection will be less with a fixed gear.

The difference between the two is that on a fixed gear bike, the pedals rotate at all times, even when "coasting". To brake, one puts reverse pressure on the pedal stroke. It is possible to install normal hand-brakes as well, though most don't come this way originally. Fixed gear track frames normally are not set up to accomodate hand brakes and don't have the brake mounting bosses on the frame and fork..

Note that this is different than a single-speed or "coaster" type bike, that does allow you to stop pedalling, but only has one gear.

Of course, with a fixed gear bike one has only one choice of gear, so hills can be a problem.

Can I put a fixed gear wheel on my bike?


I have an old road bike with horizontal dropouts, can I put a fixed gear wheel on the back?

Yes you can.

2 comments to Fixed Gear

  • Chain-free bike designs (and other major hardware changes) come up periodically. Typically, they’re belt-driven. While chains and cables for brakes seem inferior to cables and hydraulic brakes, they degrade for more gracefully. It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s a reasonable local maxima for most people. Professional racers can get away with equipment that’s wildly impractical for commuters, mountain bikers, etc., though.”Although, that would presumably be the least of your worries if a fast-moving, taught, metal wire lashed off its piston next to your leg. Ouch.” I’ve had a couple chains break or skip off (especially on fixed-gear bikes, which don’t have a derailleur or chain tensioner to regulate chain slack), and having a taut wire whip at my ankle sounds like a terrible idea. Getting a bit of grease on my ankle or pant leg is rare, and at most a minor annoyance.
