First fixed gear project.
I kind of wished I'd read more into getting a bike and the parts etc but I rode a friend's fixed gear and I really enjoyed it so I rushed getting one. Got this off of Gumtree for £75 already fixed as a true beater/pub bike. All I've changed so far was the seat which was a wreck, swapped for a Viscount seat and I put new unbranded tires on it. Obviously this needs a lot of work and I'm steadily learning what needs to be done, the next new thing it definitely needs is some handlebars, I really don't like riding with these. All I know about the bike is that it's a Tensor Panther frame.
