Everyone else has already said it, but those prices are taking the piss.
£1200 for a fixed bike with basic, quality components is absolutely mental.
I wouldn't set foot back in the shop if they quoted me that price. Surely at least a 30% discount for buying the whole thing would be reasonable, taking it to £900 which is still a rip off but acceptable, given that everyone has to make a living and their rent probably isn't cheap. Can't honestly believe they could quote you that with a straight face. It reminds me of the wapping warrior thread.
