is it fixed only? or can you flip it to a standard freewheel single speed mode?

you can mount a freewheel hub on there. it comes ready to do whatever you want. you would just have to buy a 30 dollar freewheel.

Its double sided so you can use it as a single speed or fixed. Its a great purchase.... I've been more than satisfied.

The wheels are "track" wheels. They are fixed/fixed only. There is no way to mount a freewheel to them without replacing the hub and spokes.

I don't think so- it there a quick release on the rear wheel? You would have to be able to remove the skewer from the rear wheel to replace with the one included. I had an old 10 speed with a quick release and we still had to modifiy with washers because it was not the standard size for newer wheels.

Greetings Kate. The Automatix is "freewheel" right out of the box. It is not fixed. It may be possible to disassemble and re-engineer the hub to be a fixie, but that's beyond my technical abilities. Best wishes.

Quite certain the answer is Yes. 7 speed twist with a 7 speed derailleur. Etc, Etc.

Hello, The wheel has a +0mm offset. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Yes it does. Mine had a bad speed sensor. You are going to have to get it replaced and repay the shop. Amazon will replace it for free but the shop won't. It is a pretty simple repair to do if you want to try.

Yes it does. It came with an additional free wheel gear that screwed onto the opposite side of the fixed gear. All you would be required to do is remove the real wheel, flip it and attached the free wheel gear and your ready to go.

Yes, it does. It rides really smooth in fixed gear. I haven't tried flipping it to the freewheel yet however it appears very sturdy and spins effortlessly.

I have not found a repair shop that can fix the bike's electric motor or associated components. However any bike shop can fix everything else. I have had flat tires front and rear repaired. On another brand of electric bike the local shop fixed the front stem that froze up. I have had two of these bikes which I mistreat badly by riding them on salt water beaches, Sandy trails, and carrying them around in snow storms on a 4 bike rack. It is easy to brake wires while transporting them. When the electrical components break I buy parts on line at electricscooterparts.com They have a nice diagram for a controller similar to the one used on this bike. It is a brushless 250w motor. I really like the bike for its power, long life LIPo battery, finish, adjustable handlebars, and low rolling friction as compared to other bikes. Just do not expect much help from the seller. This is why the price is low.

No, unfortunately this is not possible. Its very low in 3 wheeled model... and make it up only in 2 wheel mode

I think I know what you are asking. This bike has a flip flop hub. That means that it can be set to a free wheel where you can coast w/o pedaling. If you flip the hub, it becomes a fixed gear. That means that when the back wheel rotates, the pedals rotate. Does that answer you question?

No you can not. You would have to replace the hub, a lot of work. Zerolite makes a singlespeed wheel.

It has a flip-flop hub meaning you can turn the back wheel around to make it fixed gear(continous pedal motion) or free-wheel(like a normal bmx bike)

No, it is fixed and this is the only issue with the cart. When locked in place it gives a leftward bias. We only walk with it so it is not a real issue and anyway your weight will mostly be on the handle thus slightly lifting the front wheel and negating the issue. You turn by directing the rear wheels anyway, meaning subtle inputs from your hands. It is beautifully balanced i should add!

Its a single gear + spacers that can replace a multi-speed cassette. This has no effect on fixed or single, that's determined by your hub.

In short, yes. It's one-piece freewheel that screws on. You don't need any tools, hand-tight is fine (but snug it down), it will tighten up as you pedal. And put a little grease on the threads first. You will probably need a tool to remove the old freewheel though. More info: http://sheldonbrown.com/freewheels.html
