hello all. new to this forum so thought i'd say 'hello' moved to the big smoke a few weeks ago, wanted a fixie for ages and moving here is fuelling the urge even more, going to take the plunge at the end of the month when i get paid. not sure whether to buy an old frame and make one myself or buy a new bike.... like the bianchi pista, specialized langster or pearson touche... always been into bikes but still a novice in terms of all things fixed so any opinions etc of said bikes would be cool. BTW - is the bianchi better because its steel? i want a flip flop hub is that possible with all 3 bikes?
