My Fixed Gear Injuries

One of my biggest fears in life is having my knees explode and having to give up fixed gear, one of my greatest joys in life, for good. Is riding fixed gear bad for your knees? Is it sustainable in the long term? Here's the fixed gear injuries I've experienced in my 12 years of riding fixed to help you prevent cycling injuries and stay healthy on your fixed gear for the rest of your life.
