Doug wonders if fixed gear makes cycling less effecient. Less effecient at what? Greatest speed per kilowatt? Gears are indoubtably more effeceint. Greatest amount of fun per kilowatt? Personal preference. Greatest workout in a given amount of time? Fixed gear, hands down. At some point I saw data about the times of the Tour de France in relation to adopting first freewheel, then gears vs. fixed. There is a reason free wheels and gears were taken up. Doing so, however, come at a cost as well, all depending on what you want from you riding experience.
