Best alternative SS/fixie to the Carrera Subway Zero

I've given up looking for a (smaller than 18") CSZ to buy for Polo, what other new alternatives are there for the same monies? £200 max budget, remember it's for Polo.

Thanks

Those decathalon orange things? They're like £70. Most of it will prolly fall apart, but for that money it might be worth a try.

Varno is knocking out some small frames on here, drop him a pm.

Have you asked on the Polo forum?

Nothing on the website...maybe call them.

Did find this. Obviously much more (£230), but it comes in 26"

Thanks guys, added these to my lists to consider as well as a second hand Genesis Day One,, though Ideally I'd like a flip flop hub.

I've not asked on the Polo forum, I thought posting here would be the ideal location, /shrug/ ?

Polo peoples may point you in the right direction.

They know things others can only dream of.

yeah, I've asked a couple of the regulars from Brum Polo. Cheers

The btwin vitamin is a great bike for the money.

anyone got an opinion on this

extra 10% off until monday morn... tempting.
I'm 5ft 6 with 32" inside leg will this frame be okay for me, i'm concerned about the reach being too much.

Better than a Create either way, a 54cm should fit you fine.

cheers Edscoble,
this bike over the carrera?

Better than a Create either way.

Would be hard to find a bike that is not ;-)

Yeah the creates and the vikings are pretty poor build and material quality wise.

so this pink bike over the Carrera Zero?

If you like it, go for it.

also worth looking at the Kona Smoke, a great little bike for under £200 on ebay and the like.

The smoke's seem to go for a bit over odds imo for something second hand and a little unloved looking, would prefer new,

I'm finding mixed reviews on this pink SE.. people reconning it falls apart after 3 months and requires new BB etc so they recommend just buying something more expensive, though n the three reviews out of seven which are negative they all paid £250+ :I

Actually it's brand new (the Smoke).

ah!
I had been watching this one, but then changed my mind about finding wheels of 26" and being bothered to sell the 29ers.

The smoke may not be a singlespeed bicycle but it's an excellent value for what it is.

Have you seen this on the 2011 bikes thread?

Something a little different. Vitus Vee-1, self-styled pub bike, only £260

If youre after a polo bike, for the money this looks like a v good bet

It's nice but would take me until January to save up for the extra £100,

I like the idea of a 29er like the Kona on ebay or these but I cant find them in the UK for a low enough price.

This may help you...

Ive got most parts of these available...
