Single Speed Options

Hi,

help and advice if anyone can spare a few minutes. I have been commuting all over london for a couple of years on my trek 7.5Fx and think id like a single speed. Mainly for simplicity but also lets be honest for the looks. I have see a lots of the bigger brand names, langster, le monde etc. I have always had a soft spot for a surly steamroller and have recently taken a look at the on-one pompino model. however as you may have guessed im not a bike expert despite doing a lot of cycling.

Any advice or reccomendations would be helpful. Im pretty tall 6'4" and 85kg so some people say i shoukd go for a steel frame. My budget is upto £600 so i think the old condor pista is a bit out of range although i love the look of the classico.

Many thanks

thanks, point taken....

steel is real :)

another 100 notes and you could build up a sweet bob jackson

Genesis Flyer - steel frame and within your budget?

is it me or is the flyer 2009 lime green colour scheme sick making

Put me in mind of that early ninetys road safety jingle.
Get your self seen

I dunno. It reminds me alot of the Capo 5 2008, except that its green.

I like the way the seat tube mimics the fork on that cannondale. Nice visual feature.

Think I would prefer the flyer with a black stem and white bar tape (predictable?). Still a top notch OTP for the money though, nice geo combined with a steel frame and carbon fork.
