Knowledge sharing!!

Hello guys!! Hope you’re having great day. Through the searching information online, i realized how it internet is so important to our lives. I just wanted to share some information that i know and learned through searching online.
As all you can see i am bike geek. I personally ride Fixie which short term of fixed gear bike. Fixed gear bike is different than any regular bike. Fixed gear means bike’s crank and cog which mean parts that makes bike to run is fixed and connected together. Any regular bike can shift the gear while riding bike and also most of them are free wheel. So while you are riding bike, you can shift the gears rest your leg. On the other hand, fixed gear can’t not rest your leg while bike is running because simply it is fixed. no movement on leg means bike is stopped. I personally think fixed gear bike makes your thigh and hamstring stronger and leaner than any other bikes. Also fixed became one of the cultures to teens and young people. compare to other bikes, fixie does not have that many parts to put in and all the parts represent yourself. people put the parts they like and all of them are unique and has different colors. 

**Here are some pictures of fixie**





This is Cog and Crankset that i mentioned.
