Critical Cycles Harper Single-Speed Fixed Gear Urban Commuter Bike
This is Critical Cycles brand new fixed-gear/single-speed bike. We want you to choose how you ride, which is why we’ve built this baby around a flip-flop hub. Ride fixed or single-speed with a freewheel. Our bikes come installed on the single-speed side, but you can quickly change the orientation by removing, flipping, and re-installing the rear wheel. These speed demons come equipped with two brakes to ensure your safety, 30mm deep-v rims for a softer ride, and KMC chain for ultimate reliability. Just because we’ve built this bike to be kind to your wallet, we haven’t compromised on the quality of our components or the reliability of our ride.

Solid $200 Bike Great bike for the money, not perfect, but for $200 it doesn’t need to be.READ – Upon receipt you’ll need to not only put the handlebars, front wheel, seat, and pedals on, but also go through every bolt already attached to be sure it’s tight and that the brake pads line up with the wheels.This is a single speed / fixed gear bike, it’s not great for going really slow or going up hills. I find with the stock gear ratio it’s pretty happy around 14-17mph, any slower and…
Writing as of having built sub 24 and have out about 15 miles or so on the bike. This bike was purchased to be a starter polo bike until something pops up used or I can piece together a dream bike. So far so good on this front.Things to know: If you don’t have the tools don’t build it yourself. I, thankfully, had a friend who has been working on bikes for 20+ years with a near complete shop of tools in his basement.Fork was slightly out of wack, which we adjusted. Head…
