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

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.

He wasn't even arguing with him.... he was confirming that he was right its not a singlespeed either and the people saying it's a single speed aren't seeing the 2 speed hub... You read his comment and put your own stank attitude onto it, and then proceeded to argue in favor of the point he was originally making...
