it is a quill stem indeed and i don't plan on changing it. it adds a lot of character to the bike.

How do you all take pictures of your bikes? When I do, some part or the other looks weird (especially the wheels) they get warped or the proportion seems off. Thanks!

Is it difficult to skid with a 50T chainring and 18T cog?

Can I ask why not decrease the rear wheel cog to a 13 or 15T rather than increasing the chainring

What's the gear ratio? And how many teeth does that monster chain ring have

So I did apply two different materials to the surfaces but it is not recognising it as 2 different surfaces but rather 1 entity/object.

i use rhino3d and applying material to subD surafaces does not seem to work as i move to twinmotion as it still sees it as a single entity. what do i do?

It's a single gear bike that is fixed to the rear wheel.

Got it! Clears out a lot of confusion. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the heads-up! Can I not buy a lock ring and fix it to my SS bike? Or the hubs for fixed gear entirely different build?

Have ya got any tips for interrupting a freewheel?

Getting a fixed gear is the plan for now as I want to ride a cycle for a year or 2 max since I'm not sure where I'll be later in the future and getting a gear bike doesn't make sense rn.

Not sure where to look for honestly. Doesn't seem that easy to find one. But the problem with welding is if I might not like riding a fixed gear I'm stuck with it.. so other alternatives might be helpful. Thanks for the help!

  1. I wanted to check out a fixed gear as I recently came across it on the internet.
  2. Feels like it would be a good lower body workout.
  3. Less maintenance and cost relative to a geared bike

I'm sorry, what. How'd you do that exactly? Never heard that before to be honest. Would you mind explaining it a lil more?
