As the title says. I'm looking for an old bike to convert to a fixed-gear. I've not really got any money to spend on it but have an old Giant Warp DS3 MTB that I'll be selling once I get the old bike before using the newly freed up cash and wages from my new job to convert it. I just don't know where to look for bikes. eBay is impossible at this time of year because so many people are happy to pay more than I am willing to pay for an 80's peugeot or similar. I'm not living in London but up in sunny Teeside but I'll be in London maybe every couple of months so really I'm looking for a place that's fairly national or universal unless there are some extremely good spots in London that I can get a bike from and I'll pick one up when I'm next down in October.
