Well, I built this up over summer, when I was working ridiculously long backbreaking hours, so I was kind of prevented from ever riding it seriously. No problem I thought, since i'll be taking it to uni. Well, that didn't work out too well either, because i'm in St. Andrews, and this place really isn't condusive to riding a track bike, let alone a brakeless fixie. It's hilly, the main street is cobbled(wtf?), and you can walk to everywhere worth going in under 5 minutes. I've taken it out maybe 4 times since I got here in mid-sept.
And yeah, I wasn't in 5k debt back then haha.
I only bought the back wheel from BLB...and they installed the BB/Cranks.
Yeah, cobbles are shitters. I rode a hybrid round Edinburgh when I lived there.

Good luck with your degree.
