lol you guys are something else. i have a question. when you guys ride do you sweat a lot, and get uber tired? ive been riding for the past month and a half and always die out, but just cruise for a bit and im good to go again.

Re: (matt [solbrothers])
if you are pedaling backwards...the rear tire is doing the same.
The term "backpedaling" refers to applying force opposite the direction of the cranks movement to slow the pedals down. That and skidding is the only way to stop

That would make the rear wheel spin backwards.
Crank fixed to chainring
Chainring fixed to cog (via your chain)
Cog fixed to hub
You pedal forward, wheel spins forward
You pedal backward, wheel spins backward
You stop pedaling, wheel stops spinning

Re: (nathanong87)
noob help
can someone explain what and how a flip flop hub works?
from my understanding it can be fixed (no coasting) and then single speed (w coasting)? is this right and how do you make the change, do you change the sprocket or something.
yes i am a noob

one side is threaded for a cog, the other is threaded for a freewheel. just flip the wheel around if you want to change it.
