Mudguards on a fixed/ss bike

Quite like the idea of that one, the lockring remover was the thing I was wondering about as I may need to experiment until I get the right gearing for my unique riding style

Save you a job...48/17...74" iirc.

Plus they only work on fixed...does that mean your one of us?

Comes with 68.4" as standard apparently, sounds a bit high...

This one is rather lovely.

Well if you insist on taking that then I have to add this

[seen on our Netherlands tour]

I have a niggling feeling that @potsy may not be taking us as seriously as he might.

See, now that is exactly what is wrong with the Fixie 'thing'. Lovely, really?

If you want a dedicated 15mm spanner then take a grinder to the open end of a scrounged/found/inherited normal 15mm combination spanner and Bobs your 'with it' metrosexual aunty

Ok, I have the spanner, the lockring tool I can find but what about a freewheel remover?
Seems to be a lot of different types out there for different freewheels?

Ps the Secuclips work a treat, even I managed to get the wheel off with very little trouble

What do you need a freewheel remover for, seeing as you will be riding t'other side .
