• Thanks for your replies guys...

    This is the thing, I've seen so many amazing builds from various brands but haven't got to the point where I know the different traits that come with each.

    I basically want a tight 54cm steely to thrash around on. Pretty vague I know but it's gonna be my first proper fixie build. Is it just gonna be a case of waiting for the right thing to come up on the classifieds?

    I'm sure you will soon. Just keep looking at them and reading about them. I personally don't have a clue, but as |³|MA3K says, NJS is a good place to start. I don't read many threads about bikes on here, but the NJS thread always has lovely-looking bikes in it:

    (I'm sure you've seen it, just in case.)

    If you're not sure you'd get the build right, it might be worth practising on something you can spoil first.
