Hi, my first post here, I discovered this forum whilst looking for a new commuter. I'm planning to give a fixie a go, I'm new to all this so I'm after something with a flip flop hub so I can start out with a freewheel. I'm mainly into mountain biking so I'm not too familiar with the road stuff. My current commuter is a 10 year old giant mtb with road tyres and it's pretty much on it's last legs.
I was fairly set on the Charge plug but after a bit of reading here I'm not so sure. I really like the look of the Fuji track. My budget is around £400 - £450 any opinions between these two bikes or any other suggestions? I'm not really interested in the bowery or langster, I've always preferred the more traditional looking steel frames, even on mtbs.
Sorry if this sort of question gets asked a lot, I have read the sticky and had a good browse over various threads.
Any advice much appreciated.
Cheers
