So all of the cruiser bikes with coaster brake are illegal as well? That seems impossible to me.

Depends on what is ''cheap'' for you, but any shop that have damour bicycle as distributor could order the hub+rim an make it build by them for around 50$.

50$ is pretty cheap
converted my girlfriend's old road bike into a fixed, she's still looking for a nicer seat though.
The wheels are purple (iphone makes them look blue).

Bon petite histoire courte. J'ai acheté mon Norco 1985 pour le transformer en single gear histoire d'avoir un bike plus performant que mon vieux Peugeot pour me rendre à l'école et faire mon exercice. Je suis vraiment satisfait de mon set-up, je fais 30km/h sur les plats pour une moyenne de 26km/h sur mon 20km quotidien qui contient quand même assez de cotes .. Vive la campagne!

You can do something called ankling with clipless pedals. You can basically make power from 12 to 8 o'clock.
Crank Brothers Eggbeaters are exactly what you want.

What an awesome thread! I have an old Peugeot bike..can anyone tell me more about it? (I don't know shit about bikes)
It wont go into some of the higher gears..I was thinking of converting it into a single gear.
I want to start biking this summer..
Is this a good bike to start with? weighs 30 lbs as is, switching to a fixed gear would shed some weight too..

J'ai le même frame que toi, j'ai un ami qui allait jeter sa au vidange -_-
commantaire:un peu lourd pour son poids vu que c'est le modèle de base par peugeot. J'ai eu la chance d'essayer le modèle en alu et Holy damn, c'est plus léger!
Sinon c'est un bon modèle pas cher pour monter un fixie que tu pourra attacher partout à mtl avec un bon cadenas!
J'ai changé pour des Thick slick après avoir eu 2-3 flat en 1 été!
