So you bought a track bike, interesting. Is there a reason why you chose that instead of a single speed that does have a freewheel, and even two breaks?
I think it would be interseting to try one of those, but I’m not sure I’d like it… The one thing I think woudl be wierd would be going down a hill and your legs flying all over the place trying to keep up with the pedals. I’m sure the clipless pedals will help with that though…
Looks like a nice purchase though
