If not a 531, what else? I was looking at those as I thought they had a good rep.
Any other half decent frames I should keep a eye out for? I will certainly use the one I got the other day to learn on.
If I were you, just concentrate on finding a cheap road bike/frame, like a Peugeot or Raleigh for instance, it's usually idea to start cheap to see if you like it.
it doesn't need to be a 'decent' frame, just one that you can convert into a fixed wheel bicycle and able to ride it.
in fact, a correct sized frame is far more important, too small may make it feel cramped, too big make it feel 'stretched' to the point you might need a very short stem which can compromise the handling of the bike.
