Hi! I'm going to purchase this fixed gear / SS:
Matte Black 5 Bicycle : Fixie & Fixed Gear Bikes | State Bicycle Co.
Is this a good purchase?
And if I do buy this bike, how should I customize the bike to ride uphill with ease? I read into compact cranks but don't know which to buy.
I don't want to be undergeared for riding and racing in fast bunches.
I could buy a road bike but the minimalistic look of a fixie is more appealing. And the specs on the bike (above) don't seem too bad...
