hi, new to the site. Used to be a trials biker (does anyone want a mint Identiti Dr.Jekyll frame!?) and generally scorned road bikes. Moved to London for uni, stopped trials and hadn't been on a bike for three years. Then I acquired a 1980s raleigh racer a few months ago and have discovered the joys of bikes with thin tires. I use it to commute from Victoria Park to Chelsea. I never need to change out of the highest gear so am going to convert to a single speed as my first project.
