1 - is very 'loose' if you like
(it gets tougher whilst the numbers go up)
So 6 - is the toughest I think.
However, 1 could be the be the slowest in a way because you have to move your legs alot faster. So it really depends on how fit you are.
Not all bikes have "gear". Straddle bikes and direct drive bikes - with cranks directly attached to a wheel axle - don't have gears.
Your top gear or last gear you shift to. Depending on what make and model of your bike, either 4th or 5th on motocross bikes and for woods bikes it would be 5th or 6th.
Buy them. But some bikes can't.
Yes, Top Gear went to Vietnam on a roadtrip, on BIKES!

One can find more information about fixed gear bikes online via Wikipedia where they have details including the bikes uses as well as the pros and cons. Information can also be found on 'FixieBikes'.
No the gear's are not automatic , It's manual meaning the rider has to constantly change the gear's himself .
Oh, plenty. You have the basic categories of road bikes, MTBs, and city bikes. But then there are all the sub-categories. Road bikes sorts into TT/triathlon bikes, cyclocross bikes and touring bikes. MTBs sort into cross-country, all mountain and Downhill bikes. Then there are the stunts and jumps bikes the BMXes, dirt and trial bikes. Then there are trikes, recumbent bikes and tandems. You have internal, or external gear, single-speeds and fixies....
bmx's are made for trick and stunts and only have one gear & they don't have suspention they are also smaller , mountain bikes are more for terrain because they have gears and suspention and are a bigger
Monaco Turn 6 at 47 Km/h and in the First Gear
1st gear is for the slowest speeds , up to 15 mph or very steep hills 2nd gear is for speeds up to about 30 mph or hills, third gear is from 30-50mph, 4th and higher is for speeds over 55mph.
Because many bikes offers two places where the gear can be changed, by the crank and by the rear wheel. These gear changers or derailers, are operated by separate levers.
