Ok, so i just want a bike to ride around on during the summer, to my job and what not (i am a teen without a car oh well.)
I have this old haro that a friend gave me, it originally had coaster breaks on it (pedal back breaks).
I took em off, i couldnt pedal backwards and the chain constantly popped off and what not.
So i was thinking, my friend said he could get me a free wheel back tire (so i can pedal backwards) i wont be using breaks because i dont go down hills and i find they are annoying, don't lecture me on that please.
So if i put that Free Wheel tire on it, will i be fine or is it the actually way the bike is made.
Please help, and do i need a new chain as well. Thanks guys!
