Making a fixed-wheel bike
Following recent bike misadventures, I'm considering taking up a
friend's offer of an old frame, to turn it into a fixed-wheel bike.
He says it's an old touring frame with "relaxed geometry".
My main concern is that the bottom bracket will be too low and I'll keep
catching the pedals on the ground, something that I've done several
times lately on my old Raleigh hybrid.
What else do I need to consider?
I konw it needs to have horizontal drop-outs. What about axle spacing?
