Let me be first to congratulate you on your ingenuity in escaping the necessary hassle of starting your own thread which I fear would sink without a trace. Don't turn it into a fixie build, ride it as the gods intended, for jaunts to ones local. If you wish to ride a 'fixie-skidder' you need to start with fixie parts, fix them together yourself and fix up and look sharp in east london, it's the only way to true fixiedom, trust me, I tried for years.

Cheers mobidog... and Pifko apologies if your club is too exclusive to be in Im more than happy to ride fixed on my own hahaha... I can ride fixed I just in all honesty know fuck all about builds and all the help I can get to not have my pants pulled down on prices and parts is a bonus... So if anyone else has any more input on the bike I have at current I would appreciate your help...
also this isnt a frame I have solely for a fixie purpose hence asking if it would be sellable as I have access to other frames.
cheers

My LBS has this subtle piece of bike porn......
You pedal as normal, then to engage the 2nd higher gear you pedal backwards - whilst still travelling forwards - WTF ? Imagine doing 20 odd mph through the traffic, then for swift overtaking - oh yeah pedal backwards 8-{
The feeling at speed must be bizarre
