I am 5 9" . Would a 54 be fine for me? im ordering online.

in cycling the most important thing is to get a bike that fits you. this is why buying from a local shop is best, or at least go get fitted on a bike with similiar frame geometry.

that said, a 52-54 is what u most liekly want @ 5'9

depends if u have long legs/torso though which to get.

good luck not getting hurt massivly on ur fixie. fixies are only for very good bike handlers with alot of riding experience. and for faggot hipsters that i hope get hit by a car.

do urself a massive favor and buy a singlespeed bike instead.

Thanks for the bit of info. My dad is actually an ex track team rider back in Guatemala which was many years ago. I could ask him for info and help bu the problem is that we don't talk much..

This, fixed arent easy to use, and if what you want is to road trip, just buy a normal road bike, if not, just buy a single speed.
Anyway, ordering on line is always a risk if you havent got many idea about what the size you have to buy.
And last thing, i ve rode a fixed, and imo buy a 26 or 24 " road bike, or 24 " mtb, wich is much more fun.

Thanks for the info (: just got my bike yesterday and I'm loving it.
What's the significance of the gear ratio on the bike? Mine is 46t/15t is that good or bad?
