• Hi there

    New to the forum but can see there's a stack of useful stuff here...

    i need a commuting bike asap. Looking for my first SS as my commute is flat and i only ever use 2-3 gears anyway. Used to have plenty of cruisers/bmx's back in the day so looking forward to the relatively simple maintenance on them.

    looking to spend £250 max for complete working bike...

    Would like:

    • Light bike to carry up a flight of stairs
    • Riser bars (am used to hybrid /more upright seating position)
    • Capacity for fitting mudguards and rear rack
    • freewheel
    • puncture proof tires
    • obviously something big enough for a 6'4 bloke!

    don't care much for colours or hip styling, more interested in function than form. also not totally up with the lingo/jargon yet.

    Look forward to any pointers from anyone.

    Cheers,
    Tim

  • Oh yeah forgot to say i'm in SW London, and can pay and pick up in London only - ASAP!!!

  • Just sent you PM. I'm selling a derivation of this: http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/2004/henley.htm. It's got aerorage tack wheels, freewheel, F&R brakes, new bars and a couple of other bits I can't call to mind. The condition is worse than in the photo. It needs a few replacement parts (chain, chainring) and a clean before it's race ready.

    It's 60cm C2C, so it should be a good fit. And I'm SW.

  • Can i point sir in the direction of the 61 cm Fuji Track that i have just put up for sale on the post below yours. Would be ideal!

  • bump - any big bikes getting around? have bought a geared commuter but still looking to try out a SS...

    cheers.

  • I have a large bob jackson fixed bike i am wanting to sell. It is super light but I would be wanting a bit more than 250 for it? PM me if your interested in taking a look? Work in SW London quite a bit - Bristol now but could drop it off
