For Sale: Upright Fixie Ride with Strong Track Frame

I saw a guy in a bike shop once wanting a custom built fixie that worth a grand without having any knowledge of bike. He kept saying, whatever you say mate, as long as it looks good...

I bet he was annoyed when it turned out that Scoble was the sales assistant.

Oh does he work at Evans? It wasn't Evans I referred to, it was a fixie specialist which i shouldn't really name.

can you post a copy of the CEN certificate for these frames and components please.

I've just bought a Charge Scissor frame from Evans for £130, trick fork for £80, good FSA Pig headset for £30. Second hand cranks, stem, seatpost and saddle. Wheels - cheap but solid hand made Weinmanns for let's say £70. Seems a better deal.

There are a million better deals if you're counting second hand, self build, shopping in the sales etc.

But there are also better deals at regular prices for complete, ready to ride bikes.

As for the frame as above, I'm sure one of those older Foffa conversion would make a better investment, because the frames were solid - Raleigh, Puch etc.

Yeah, but none of those bikes were Upright.

Orly? The one and the only -

only a fucktard would buy one of those.

This needs to be taken out of classified and merged with the other shit bikes threads.

all of them? that's 80% of the forum merged into one big pale blue shitty old conversion of shitness

Look at this fucking spotted shit bike.

Look at it.

As a DIY bike made from Chinese parts, I expected this to be around the £80-mark. If those wheels are assembled in China then I wouldn't expect them to keep true for long.

I think your pricing is off, and if you aren't making a massive margin on that price then reconsider your supplier.

It's already been pointed out that you can get ready-made bikes elsewhere that will have reasonable after-sales service.

I wish you good luck though.

no you have to true the wheels yourself after you have bought it.

That's why is better to get Arrospoks.

or you could get one of these bad boys

Shite!

You should be called Pi r squared (πr²) which is the circumference of a circle / wheel.

nah.. the name is an indication of how long the bike will last... about 9.8 days.

It conforms to the standards
