Unipack / Create / Sports Direct singlespeed track bikes?

So it would appear that admitting i ride a unipack is forum suicide but I don't really care and if it means i don't get to join the "fixie elite" then all the better because riding is about having fun and getting away from all that bs!

Obviously the bike and components aren't top quality (the bottom bracket is shit and will only last a couple of weeks but it's easily replaced) but I wanted a cheap first bike that I could learn from, mess about with and customise.

I might be a newbie but so far I love riding fixed and joined this forum to speak to like minded people and learn a bit more about the bikes

@ andy - V-happy thyanks :)
@ fox - I've already got a new chain just gotta swap it over, I think a new chain ring and cranks are next on my wish list - any recomendations welcome, I want something that will last but won't break the bank

It's not about joining any sort of Fixie elite, it's about common sense. How much was your unipack? How much are you spending on top because of shit components? They're not a bit shit, they are 100% dire. My only experience with them was from what I heard on here, but I saw someone holding their crank arm in their hand the other day. I stopped to see if he was alright, turns out he bought his Create Unipack 2 days earlier. £100/day is clearly well worth it.

For £200 you can get a much better bike. When I say better I don't mean it's got more style points, I mean it's stronger, probably lighter, and more reliable.

For £50 then perhaps it would fall into the category, "it's a bike, I get to ride it, I have a good time, that's all that matters." Not at £200.
