I looked at them for my first fixie and they seem pretty nice, although I can't comment on how well-engineered they are. Decided to build my own fixie instead and reckon I'll be able to do it for less than £270 anyway (maybe not counting the wheels though as I wanted to get a good set, which I can keep even if I sell the bike). Personally, I love the idea of building my own bike, getting it painted and fitting the parts I want and it's great to learn about bike maintenance. Maybe these are pretty good if you wanted to try fixed-wheel riding but don't have massive bucks...
