To build a fixie for your bike, you will need to start with a single-speed bike frame. Remove the freewheel and install a fixed gear cog on the rear wheel. Make sure to properly tension the chain and adjust the brakes. Consider adding a front brake for safety. Customize your fixie with handlebars, saddle, and other components to suit your preferences.

Are fixies hard to ride compared to other types of bicycles?

Fixies, or fixed-gear bicycles, can be more challenging to ride compared to other types of bicycles because they lack freewheel mechanisms, meaning the pedals move with the wheels at all times. This requires constant pedaling and can make it harder to coast or brake. Riders need to be more attentive and skilled to handle fixies effectively.
