  • Hey, I'm new to this forum.
    Wanted to buy a fixed gear bike for a while but never could justify spending money on something i wasn't sure if i would phase out of (since i have never had a "real" shot on one )

    Well either way the idea slipped my mine for a while, until a few days ago when i found this decaying bike in a skip (it also happened to be pay day) So i thought why not give myself a summer project and try and restore it and give me my first fixed gear bike.

    The only thing is i know nothing about the technical side of bike especially fixed gear.

    anyways heres the bike.
    its not in amazing condition but i think its salvageable plus I'm not looking for much out of my first build / first fixed gear

    so opinions do you think its worth it?
    i was thinking of putting in a flip-flop hub on if i go ahead with the project so if i find its not for me on a daily basis i haven't just wasted money.

    You can always sell the flip flop wheel or use it later in another project. Go for it.
