A fixie bike or fixed gear bike belongs in an interesting category. Whether you’re talking about a women’s fixie bike or men’s, we’re here to tell you they aren’t that different from a regular bike.

However, they do come with a few things that set them apart. Understanding them is much easier if you already know about the components of a regular bike.

Basically, a fixie bike is a single-speed bicycle that has a single fixed gear. This is where the term “fixed gear bike” comes from.

It’s also often referred to as a “fixie bike” by those using them. While riding a fixed gear bike, you are pedaling in a forward motion to move ahead, and pedaling backward to go in reverse.

Everything, from the worst to the best-fixed gear bikes, works this way.

A more technical description would be that the cog on a regular bicycle, which is the piece of metal that looks like a gear and holds your chain, has ball bearings that will allow it to spin freely while the bike moves, even when you are not pedaling.
