HowTo? Fixed / Singlespeed conversion from an old bike

road bike geometry is generally considered more comfortable for road riding than track geometry, mainly because it's designed to be. the fact it's a road frame isn't why it should be built properly, it's because it's a hand-built frame built by one of the most respected framebuilders in the country/world.

there's also the problem that anyone who's been into cycling for over 20 minutes will take one look at you riding fixed on a classic frame like that and think "what a tool". also the fact that you spent £225 on a frame, having never built a bike before may also make people think "what a rich tool".

tl;dr: BUILT NICELY WITH GEARS PLEASE

Rich tool is not the look I was going for! Frame arrives today, i'll consider either gears or selling it on as there is a genuine 'Roberts' who is interested. I currently ride on a track frame so may be worthwhile getting another one for this new build instead of perverting a classic road frame with my filthy fixed gear ideas, Teenslain how many bikes do you have by the way!
