Bikes originally all started out as fixed gears - they've been around much longer than their geared counterparts. So yes, it is.

I want to know how long this guy's legs are... I mean, just to reach the peddle at it's lowest point, he'd have to have ridiculously long legs.

[–]xcellardoor 5 points6 points ago

There is an assist stirrup right above the back wheel.

[–]theonewiththeface 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

What I meant was, when he is riding the bike and peddling. Would he just push down and the peddle loses contact with his foot so he would only have one foot on one peddle at a time? Or does he have a freakishly long legs and leaves his feet on both peddles at all times.

Although, you did answer my initial question of, "how he got up there in the first place?"

It's actually spelled "pedal". "Peddle" is when you sell things.

The cranks seem really short, so i'm assuming there isn't much range of motion there. It seems like a tallish person could reach the bottom of the revolution. It looks horribly unergonomic and inefficient though.

[–]Boromm 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's not necessarily any more any inefficient than a normal fixed gear bike. It simply uses a larger radius wheel that requires more energy to turn it, but takes less turns to go to same amount of distance than a normal sized wheel. Once you get it going it works really well.

In high school physics a lot of time you'll do projects where you have to build a car powered by only a mousetrap and the winner for distance is always the one with the giant drive wheel since it covers such a big distance in each cycle and it has serious momentum advantages over the little wheels.

[–]ProfoundlyDeaf 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When i said inefficient, i meant to say that the length and placement of the cranks mean that the position of your legs is such that you are unable to generate much power. I would imagine you'd be utilising the muscles in your calves, rather than the larger muscles in your thighs which would allow for easier power generation.

I don't know what word would convey that best, sorry. Also, i'm rather depressed to say that it took me a great deal of thought to properly understand what you were saying. I'm not very good at physics.

[–]fractals_ 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

More efficient, since there is a small efficiency loss with a chain and gears.

[–]NuclearWookie 4 points5 points ago

It just seems terrible from every perspective: the pedals are arranged in an inefficient way, getting on it is difficult, and it's not maneuverable. The only advantage it has over a normal bike is that it lures attention for the attention-starved.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

Also, typical modern designs were once called "safety bikes". The reason is that these big wheel designs are very easy to crash and very tough on the rider when they do.

You're hating for no reason. My quasi-ex girlfriend's dad restores model T's and drives his around on sunny days from time to time. I think, gasp, he finds it fun. I'm restoring a 1984 VW Vanagon and transplanting a Westy interior into it minus the pop top. But that's just masochism, no fun was had so far. Point is, everyone knows modern bikes are better, that's not what it's about.

It's much less likely to get stolen, but aside from that, no. It's less safe, less stable, and it necessarily has only one gear ratio.

I imagine the ride height might have some advantages.

High wheeler bicycles were used because a bigger wheel meant you could apply more torque and go faster than you could with a smaller front wheel when the pedals are fixed to the axle. This was before the concept of using gears to increase the ratio of pedal rotations to tire rotations.

No. I hate them because it's an archaic bicycle; not only is it idiotic looking, but it's less convenient than a standard bike. So in order to make a fashion statement while riding a stupid bike, they sacrifice convenience. Its just...absurd. And screams: "look at me!"

I was going to convert my bike into a fixie, because they do look like a lot of fun and require a different riding technique.

I'm glad I decided not to, however. I'm also gald that they're going out of style. If this is what replaces fixies, I won't be tempted.

[–]Aeyoqen 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

If you're curious, try a flip flop hub - single speed cog on one side, fixed on the other. Riding fixed is actually quite fun, and it makes your pedal stroke better, making you a stronger rider with a better cadence overall. Fixed gears have been around since way before their geared counterparts, so at some point they may go out of style with the "hipster" crowd, but they won't disappear outright.

Seriously - try riding one. Their fun!
