Unipack / Create / Sports Direct singlespeed track bikes?

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.

heard it all before people slagging off unipaks because they are cheap... there not death traps i ride mine with no brakes and ride it hard and have no problems... matter of fact i ride a create unipak and im happy with it call me a novice all you want im happy with it and had no problems... but still would prefere a charge =p
