Got my first bike since I was a little kid over the weekend. It’s a Tribe Brooklyn fixed gear. I have a bunch of questions if anyone can help.
I have the chain set on the “bearing” side so I can coast without peddling. Is this pleb or is it personal preference? Should I just practice with the fixed pedals? Also what’s the purpose of taking off the brakes on these type of bikes? Is it safe for the gears to just resist the pedal momentum to slow down and stop?
Is my ass supposed to be this sore?
Fixed gear general also I guess
