Doesn't the Quickbeam beg for innovation? I ran it fixed initially, freecog this last cold season. At one point I actually bought a Shimano internal 7-speed hub to put on it, but then decided the Q would become just another city bike. So I sold the wheel without using it.
I have decided to keep the Q in manual multi-gear mode, because that is what makes it unique and interesting for me. When I feel the urge to monkey with it, I change free-to-fixed-to-free, a bag, or tires. Hey, maybe its time to put on some knobbies for mixed surface riding.
