Modern bikes such as the Harper Plus Fixie + Single Speed allow you to transition back and forth between fixie mode and single speed mode when you need to do a little coasting. One thing that I appreciate about fixie bikes is that they eliminate the need to mess with the shifters, allowing you to focus on riding and having a good time. This enhances the connection between the rider and the bike and creates a smooth-riding sensation. Fixie bikes can be particularly fun to ride, as the bike is completely responsive to your control because your feet are directly connected to the rear wheel. Fixie bikes get their name because one gear is fixed to the rear wheel, and to move that rear wheel, you have to keep the pedals moving.

They aren't trying to corner the specialty bike market, where they might be able to sell the most expensive bike possible. One thing I appreciate about Retrospec is that they sell quality bikes to average people. While more advanced riders need multi-speed bikes, single-speed bikes are perfect for the casual rider looking for smooth rides and fresh air. As an adult, I now realize that less is often more, and simplicity reduces hassle and frustration. As a kid, I thought the longer the list of features, and the more speed settings the better. The Harper Plus Fixie Bike with Single Speed easily transitions between a fixed setting (explained below), and a single-speed mode. One quick piece of advice related to sizing: measure your inseam, as well, before buying, to make sure you can stand over the top tube without a compromising situation. For instance, I am 5' 11", so the 57CM - L bike is the best fit for me.
