My only concern for myself regarding trying fixed is hurting my knees by always trying to pedal too hard. Hilly where I live. I see it is even hillier where Patric lives. So how do you pedal up those long, tough hills without shooting meniscus out the sides, especially at our middle age?
I have been learning to relax the legs while climbing in a very slow cadence to avoid mashing too hard. This seems to work for anything under 4%. But there comes a point where I will have to unhealthily mash or LCG. So this keeps me from buying a single speed bike. But I would love a single speed bike to have the mental relaxation of never shifting gears. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
