XL/XXL Sized Single Speed Wanted

Posted on
  • Hi guys,

    First time post. I have recently relocated home to London from Australia and looking to buy a new single speed to get around. I am 6ft3 so XL/XXL frame is ideal. Would prefer a steel-frame single speed. I am based in Peckham but can get around pretty easily to pick up.

    In terms of budget, totally depends what's on offer so if its something around the 200-250 mark that's great but happy to stretch to 5-600 for some perfect!

    Hope this is enough info to go off?

    Cheers!

  • Welcome home :)

    Would you consider a fixed gear bike? I'm selling a 60cm 1990s Peugeot. If you prefer single speed, it's got a flip flop hub, so you could fit a new freewheel and a rear brake. I'm taking photos tomorrow and can share if you're interested.

  • Yes definitely interested mate!

  • SOLD: 60 cm 1992 Peugeot Tourmalet fixed gear conversion, complete bike

    £245 SOLD

    I have over 10 years of happy memories with this bike :) I now regrettably have to sell and am looking for a third owner.

    The steel frame is super responsive and feels really connected to the road without being too rigid. For a steel frame, it feels quite light, especially combined with modern, lighter aluminium wheels. As a fixed gear conversion, I’ve mostly ridden it around town, but it’s been good fun on a few longer rides. Everything is running smoothly.

    As you get with a used 30 year old bike, there’s a few imperfections. I’ve always kept it indoors, but it does have a little bit of surface rust on the frame where there’s a few scratches from wear and tear. There’s also rust on the freewheel, the front wheel nuts and the toe strap buckles. The saddle is a little scuffed. The brake lever hood is torn, but stays put. The thread on the drive side crank is partially stripped. The tyres are getting a bit worn.

    DM me if you’re interested.
