Hey all!
So pretty much as per the title equation really! I'm looking for a SS and have been perusing my second hand options - the occasional irrationally low Gumtree option which would no doubt see me walk away sans money, with a black eye and no bike; a few similar eBay options and a few more credible offerings up here. I haven't ruled out buying new and splashing a bit more dollar though HAVE got passed the initially brilliant seeming "Create" shaped hurdle.
Would it be ridiculous to consider building something, as a newb, or as a hands on Virgo should I still consider this?! Equally, please let me know if anyone's selling anything! I'm a fan of simple, clean looking bikes a la Globe Roll. No doubt I'll post in the classifieds too.
Oh, and I'm 6'5 so there's my biggest 2nd hand limitation. Fingers crossed anyone can throw me a bone! All I can offer in exchange is free entry to a bunch of London gigs as a promoter?! Yay?! Nay?!
