walmart now sells a fixed gear bike with a flip flop hub
I seen one the other day it's called a thrasher.I t's set up in the freewheel hub but has a true fixedgear one also.
the breaks are a little weak to use as a tru fixes gear, the handle bars and bike color are a little odd. hey I guess every one wants to get into the game.
I'm not getting rid of my se draft lite to buy one..
I couldn't find the price of the bike.

The bikes they've sold, like the Mongoose Cachet have always had flip-flop hubs.

Spend more time reading around the site and you will become more comfortable with the terminology and the way your bike works.

Man, its as big as you make it but sitting idly by and not acknowledging someone doing something wrong makes the witness look just as mis-informed as the person doing the action. Theres no snobbery involved, just trying to help a kid learn about his bike.
