This double single speed idea - I wonder if this is what I've actually been doing all along - and if so, I was cool before it was cool to be cool. My Betty is from 2012, and has the traditional friction shifters and two chainrings up front, and several in the back. However, I only use 2 gears. I never, ever shift the rear gears, and I will only shift to the granny cog up front when climbing the unreasonable hill near home. I never think to shift any other time. The way the bike feels is normal to me, and I never feel the itch to mess with it. I don't know if the gears are simply perfect for me, thus no need to change, or if my legs have become one with this bike. I suspect the latter.
