I'm in Oxford, but fancy a trip to London to go to some fixie shops (unless anyone knows any hidden gems here? - I've only just started looking round here) - where would you recommend? We'd probably be on foot, and as a student, wouldn't want to spend a fortune travelling all day. Are there any good bike shops (fixie based/mostly fixie) near each other?
I'm after a built SS/FG, and my mate is keen on building his first SS/FG bike, and I'm thinking I could buy something, while he gets inspiration, or if I don't buy anything, some good advice and also inspiration!
I'm after a single speed with branded components for around £250, probably used. Been scouring ebay to no avail.
Preferably i'd like to plan the daytrip with a mind to buy a second hand conversion for sub £250... is this too much to ask, and should I just go with a mind to get loads of advice instead, thus probably going to different shops?
Thanks,
Matt.
