Hello, I need some help!!
I am really big into bikes, mainly off road - DH is my sin. The last few months I have had a real desire for a single speed, THEN I stumbled across this thing called a fixie and I was like "that is a road bike but it looks cool, hang on, no brakes, cool paint jobs, wicked following - im in!!"
I like the idea of an extreme road bike!!
Now this is where I need your help.
I ain't a particually big guy, 5" 10, first question is what frame size do I need? Someone I work with recons a 20 inch / 50 cm BB to TT but these seem to be fairly scarce.
Looking as a reference, Charges Plug SS road bike in small is a 56 cm so I am a bit unsure.
Also does anyone have a frame in the right size for sale? I've got around £100 to spend on either a good frame or an OK frame and forks.
Cheers
LA
