Sweet deals, to be sure, but I've got an awkward shaped frame and I can't get a chainline less than 52mm in the front. So it's either a case of getting an expensive off-road fixed gear hub, or get a normal cup-and-cone hub, move the whole hub along the axle and dish the wheel the wrong way. Not ideal, but it works fine for the time being. But I can't do that with a sealed bearing hub like all those are, because (AFAIK), their axles are like this: http://sheldonbrown.com/harris/images/hua07.jpg
So the need still stands :)
Thanks for the link anyway, because I may be rebuilding my front wheel anyway and there are some great deals on there.
