Would the transition from a multiple-gear (10/14/21 gears) bike to a single-speed/fixed-speed one be difficult?

Asked by JonnyCeltics (2721points) May 10th, 2011

….looking to purchase a bike for the summer…some pretty rad one’s I’ve seen online are fixed-speed/single-speed (the same?). How difficult would the transition be? Are their even brakes? Why does the difference matter, i.e. is it beneficial in certain situations/contexts?
