Adjust? A fixie rider must simply have the leg power to climb the
hill with the chosen gearing, or walk. On descent of steep hills, if
the bike does not have hand brakes, then the fixie rider needs to have
leg-braking skills sharply honed, or very good medical insurance
and/or a currently valid will.

For certain values of "cheap", perhaps.
