I've now finished my fixie build project, based on a (I'm fairly certain) late 1970's Holdsworth Mistral frame that I had resprayed at Argos Racing Cycles in Bristol.
As you will see in the photo, it's got two brakes. This is because:
I live on the edge of the Cotswolds and it's pretty hilly here
I'm a big girl's blouse
I took it for a quick spin up and down the road when I'd finished it, it felt fantastic! Looking forward to a longer ride.
Hi all

If anyone is interested / as sad as me, I've put more photos and the project saga on my website: http://www.charleshookfrancis.co.uk/Fixie_Bike_Build.html
Hoping for a summer full of fixed fun!
