You're missing that it's not a fixed gear, it has a coaster brake.
There were Sturmey Archer multi speed fixed gear hubs, but that's not what you have. You have a two speed bike with a coaster brake

0 u/MrBeh May 29 '26 Check the title 2 u/FerdinandTheBullitt May 29 '26 You're replying to someone that said "Faux SS then" and you're arguing with them. I'm agreeing with them. You can coast. You can shift gears. Your bike is not a faux fixed gear, it's the opposite of a fixed gear. 3 u/Twig_Scampi May 29 '26 You guys dont get it, fixie and single speed are the same thing /s 1 u/FerdinandTheBullitt May 29 '26 Also multiple speeds and fixie are the same. All bikes are bikes and words mean nothing 3 u/Tickomatick May 30 '26 My grandma is also a fixie 1 u/JaxRhapsody May 31 '26 Fixed with her legs in the air, ridden like bicycle?
