et011: some real, genuine, completely comedy free advice -
First of all, the search function is your friend :) typing in OTP will bring up loads of stuff.
for about £500, that gazelle is excellent, if you don't mind taking the plunge and going fixed. I've bought from forum members several times and have never been disappointed.
If you really really really want to buy new - for £500 go for a pearson touche (google it) or a genesis flyer. Both get positive reviews and are good value for money.
You might want to stretch your budget - look at felt TK2, or Fuji Track Pro - both are very beautiful (track) bikes (ie fixed wheel, which you'd need to buy brakes for)
Hope this helps.
Don't be put off by the humour - it's just that every single day someone asks us the same question - it's difficult to be helpful all the time. :)
