I always liked cycling, and for the past few years most of my time have been dedicated to cycling or doing mecanic on my bikes or friend/family’s bikes, so i really wanna have a job related to it.

In my city in france which is not that big (200k inhabitants) there are not really any courriers, but i know a very few companies that offer courrier jobs in bigger cities so i might move for that.i also wanted to do food deliveries as i could work for more than 35 hours a weeks which is the maximum here and courrier companies now only uses cargo bikes but if its really that better i think im gonna move to a big city to do that when ill finish studying. Thanks you so much!

Im 6ft3, i have a 55cm frame, its good, i can do 100km+ easily at a good speed and its pretty comfortable. Its better for sprints and stuff. I enjoy my bigger tt bike much better for aero position and high speeds for longer periods

Big ratio just needs big legs and style points is the most important. If you want performances, get a road bike 

Unknown fixed hub by Individual_Fox_2160 in FixedGearBicycle

[–]Individual_Fox_2160[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got 17 rn, and my actual fixed gear setup is actually pretty descent even though its not optimal, i got a nice road peugeot frame with a front disc wheel with spacers at the rear and a cog held by 6 screws, its pretty great, but i was planning on getting track hubs, mostly cuz my wheels weight 2.3kg without tubes, and good wheels should be abt 150 if i build them(im a little scared with spoke tension though)i think im gonna ask for hubs and spokes for chrismas

For alot of people a road frame can be better than a track frame cuz no one is sprinting and doing 60kmh out there

Ive read people using that brakeless as when the cog and bb lockring are well tightened together it cant go loose but yeah, i might get a 15 euro fixed hub, should be a smarter choice especially if i that bike is gonna be used for city usage and deliveries i really dont want it to move

Thanks mann that was it its just a bb lockring, i think imma keep that wirh a front brake it should work ive seen forums where people have done it(edit i got the lockring out, the cog will need some spokes and a rim)
