Hi,
Hoping you can help me finish my first conversion. Based in Leeds
Trying to build up a nice heavy commuter bike / training bike (fixies have a following in mountain and fell runners would you believe!)
I need the following parts
Fixed back wheel ideally fixed/fixed hub and either 27" or 700c wheels Pref front and back but not essential
BMX style brake lever/levers (I may have two brakes to start with)
Possibly a crank with arms and a 44 or 42t ring
I have the following (in Leeds)
An early 80's Peugeot PKN10 frame and forks in silver and crome. Good condition. 531 tubing no dints. Perfect for a conversion but just a bit too small for me
weimann wheels and mailard high flange hubs (standard hubs)
ATA original drop bars and quill
Possibly a stronglight crank? Unless fits on my other project? Don't have a crank remover tool so not 100% sure
Similar to the following

If interested happy to get some piccies up and possibly post if needed but prefer if nearby.
