    He might give you sweets though....

  • hopefully.

  • Don't worry I'm not going to run off with your bike Velo Libre!!!!. My name is Paul Vincent and for my sins I became tech editor of Cycling Plus tech editor for a number of years (about 12 actually). I'm based in Bristol and there will be a 2 week turnaround. I've not started conversions yet as I'm still testing the water before I commit to public liability insurance and a quantity of custom designed dropouts, but have had a practise on converting quite a number of my old frames. Go and check out the review of my twin-tube fixie bike in RoadCC. I know what I'm doing n'all so don't worry they won't break..

  • Thanks dmczone.

  • I remember that bike - good price your are quoting for the track end conversion

  • Heh thanks fella. Shame there be no takers!. Argos charge quite a bit more - like £120 + VAT last time i looked. Reassuringly expensive perhaps ???

  • I think if you set up a thread with a better title you would have more interest - perhaps something along the lines of

    Offered: Frame Surgery, Drop out conversions, Track ends and more

    Also the use of the word fixie doesnt go down to wel in these parts!
