As autumn is getting on, some sort of simple clip on mudguard and a decent set of lights would make a good investment.
The Charge Spoon is a comfortable enough saddle to start off with so would not be the first thing to upgrade. Foot retention will be essential for riding fixed so you should probably start thinking now about what system you want to adopt (clipless, straps, toeclips etc). Enjoy it either way.

Yo folks, so after some advice on here and other places I've just bought my first single speed to hop around London on. . . I can't wait to not have to walk or tube it everywhere. Anyway I went for a charge plug and managed to scratch some funds together to go brand new, but think I got a bargain (£225). What do you think? For some reason the saddle and bar end plugs are red, I'm not sure why. Special Wiggle edition? Anyway it's the real deal and hopefully it'll fit me well, I'm 6' but more used to a relaxed riding position. . . or else I'll have to sell it. . . on here probably! Upgrades I'm thinking in time are saddle (for more comfort), pedal with clips (apparently better for riding fixed) and slicker tyres. Can anyone recommend anything else?
Cheers folk!
