A single speed bike is a bicycle with one gear ratio as opposed to the usual multi-speed gears used by most bikes. Although the setups can vary, the general underlying concept is that you have one sprocket at the rear, one chainring and no derailleurs needed to switch between gears.
1. They’re light!
Single-speed bikes are lighter in weight than geared bikes. There's less to carry and the ride is smoother, making it so that you can take your single speed bike anywhere! More importantly, a lighter bike is easier to accelerate and maneuver because you’re moving less mass around while you ride.
The best part about a single speed or fixed gear bike is that you can carry them up stairs, onto trains, and even up escalators if you have to.
2. They’re easy to maintain and repair.
The simplicity of a single speed bike's setup makes it easy to maintain and repair, both because fewer parts could break and because the lack of complicated gears means that there's less that could go wrong.
However, we always recommend cyclists carry a bike tool kit with the essentials in case anything happens unexpectedly.
3. They’re affordable!
The lack of extra components and added weight also means that these bikes are cheaper than their geared counterparts-a big plus if you're trying to save some money!
Generally, expect to pay anywhere from £350-£600 for a decent-quality bike that will last you for a long time. For the best deal, look to purchase a bike with a lifetime warranty.
Additionally, you won’t have to worry about adjusting gears or replacing broken parts in a single speed bike either, which can save you money in the long run when it comes to servicing costs.
4. They keep you fit.
The single speed bike is a classic with a new twist-it's designed to be ridden at a constant, comfortable speed, which is excellent for commuting and/or long rides where you want to take in the scenery. This means riding a single speed bike is a great way to get fit and stay fit.
Undoubtedly, once you get into the habit of riding your bike places, you will start to see a positive change in your physical condition. You'll feel more energised, healthier, and lean!
5. They increase your concentration and agility.
Riding a single speed bike requires you to be in tune with your body and what the bike is doing at all times, which means you have to focus on your balance and coordination as well.
Once you get the hang of it, you'll also be able to react quickly to any obstacles that come your way, which will make you more agile.
Single speed bikes are a fun, straightforward ride.
