Can't imagine the frame being any heavier than current stuff, I had one for about five years really nice bike commuted, club run and used it on HH track, but the biggest factor in the nice ride was it having upgraded blingy wheels which had quite an effect on the ride. Are the forks original on that bike, bit difficult to tell from phone pictures but it looks like the trail has been extended

That's the original fork, it has the matching graphics to the frame.

Not keen on those graphic effects but the ones on the forks look to match those on the frame. Difficult to be sure if the silver marks on the back forks are part of the graphics theme or bits of missing paint.

Skull edition. 2007
Had one - they are good. Buy it. 150 with dynamo set up is a good deal

If it helps I'm the seller.
Pretty sure it's just graphics but I'll check tomorrow.
I'd keep it if I had space.

IMHO That makes it a better buy, I had the earlier version with the straight alloy fork, that was quite harsh until better quality wheels and 25c tyres fitted.

My first ever single speed. I miss it so.
Looking for advice please.
I own a few fixed gear bikes that use for my commute and club runs in the wet and winter to save wear and tear on my geared bikes. Also I just like riding fixed even here in hilly West Yorkshire.
My favorite fixed bike is a Boardman bought in 2009.
I like it because it is lighter, more responsive, more comfortable and generally less baggy than my other fixed machines.
I've never ridden a Langster but keep thinking I might like one.
What I'm wondering is would a frame of old Langster ride that much differently to the current offering or be much heavier.
Just been looking at this one.
