Bike Gears 101

Good fixed gear bike?
Im looking to buy a fixed gear bike, but money is limited……..i found these online http://cgi.ebay.com/55cm-Track-Fixed-Gear-Chromoly-Road-Bike-Bicycle-NEW_W0QQitemZ180385291688QQcmdZViewItemQQssPageNameZRSS:B:SRCH:US:101
idk, what do you think? good? bad?
Well, the big question is, are you buying it for training and general on-road riding or for racing on a track?
If you’re just buying it for road riding, it looks pretty good and the price is right. I have a Windsor that is just about the equivalent of that one and I like it a lot.
On the other hand, if you want it for racing on the velodrome, no, it’s way too heavy for that.
Good luck!
