It has a flip-flop hub, with fixed-gear threading on one side and freewheel on the other. Origin8 rims stand out as excellent quality for money, making them the queens of fixed-gear bikes. The size is 700c, meaning it is compatible with all road-bike tyres. You can mount 23, 25 or 28 tyres and will need a 60mm-valve inner tube.
