However gears is the difference, my fixed tops out around 19mph whereas my geared bike I can go 32+ no problem ---

I’ve always wondered about the weight of the frame itself having much of an effect once you are up to speed. General use beyond that of say a lighter rider. (Ex. 140lb rider - 20lb bike versus 130lb rider and a 30lb bike.) ---

I much prefer my fixed gear. I don’t think I’ve ridden my geared bike in 2 years. and I have a nice geared bike, bianchi reparto corse. Fixed just works the legs more and feels more connected ---

Fixed just works the legs more and feels more connected I agree with you on that. I just fear the day I’m flying down Elmwood and someone whips their door open infront of me, I’m for sure going to hit it with having no brakes…:picard: ---
