Start near 2:1 for a 26-inch off-road bike, then adjust for wheel size, hills, cadence, load, and terrain. Lower ratios climb more easily.

Can your single-speed bike safely convert to fixed gear? Check the hub, lockring, dropouts, chainline, chain tension, axle security, and working brakes first.

The CyclingDeal FK-02 is the best simple cassette-hub conversion kit. Compare it with the FK-03 tensioner bundle and check compatibility before buying.
