The one off the bay went back to the seller (don't think he really knew what he was doing...or about as much as me). There were a few probs with it. The rear hub was not stepped - just a bog standard freewheel (which he had called 'track'). I didn't want to go suicide on my first fixed. There was a fork issue in there too....but the guy was very cool about it all and took it back no fuss.
So I just got a bargain Peugeot (i know, i know...) for £60 which I stripped down and am using now, along with the geared bike I commute on. In a month or two I'll get a new wheelset built up...then new frame... then we're away.
I love those pedals/clips i got off you by the way...thanks a lot
