    A gear that is "easier" only means you will go slower and pedal more.
    Get a fixie – get some gears on your legs, not on your bike.
    I’m 13 years without gears now (a 2005 Langster) and, coincidentally, 13 years without needing a mechanic.

    Good day! Nice vid!
    btw, I got a problem not about gear shifting, you might give me some tips. I got a mosso m5 from a trade and noticed that the part of the steerer tube where the crown race sits is worn out (I think they grinded it) the crown race doesn’t sit properly :/ please help. thanks God bless!
