Hi all,
So, its my first post and guess what? I'm already calling on the community for some advice!
Thanks in advance, I've been reading around the forum, everyone seems well informed :)
I've been riding mountain bike round London everyday for the last few years, and now (yes, I don't why it took me so long) I'm going to get a single-speed. I do all my own maintenance, so don't mine building a bike etc.. but my question to you is this,
What do you suggest I buy/build?
I basically just want something lighter and faster than what I've got (heavy mountain bike that I use off-road in the weekends, so that won't be hard), single-speed in the £200 - £375 range (I know its not much, but its a start). Secondhand, whatever.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks for your time, and great website.
S
:)
