I used to love riding fixed in Liverpool as nobody else did it around 8 years ago when I resurrected my old track frame (Kirkby velodrome, those were the days). If it's only going to be a short distance bike, go as cheap as you like and convert any old piece of shit to do the job that fits you. Got to remember the trend for thieving objects which aren't of a permanent nature up there, and even that's debatable. If you like it enough to think about hanging round with some of the liverpool people who frequent here like chickin (sp), then spend some money on your next build.
Of course, if it's style points you yearn, then blow the budget on something tasty. Just make sure you check the 'locks that work' thread.
