Hi,
I'm a bit of a newbie to fixies etc. Coming from a track and road racing background. I'm after a fixie and a friend has offered me a frameset but i'm not sure if it's worth what he is asking for it. My friend has offered me a barely used Ciocc frameset from the late 70's its beautiful with some chrome etc and I think I've fallen for it. But, he's asking for £500 for it, it's not actual cost that's a problem, it's whether this frame is worth that? How much would it be worth? He says it's got it's original paint and he's only ridden it once in the summer, should i be asking him for a lower price or biting his hand off to buy at this price?
Any help really is much appreciated, I'll try respond quick but I'm out at the tour at the moment so Internet connection is hard to find
