Just moved from the US to UK and couldn't bring my bike. Just got into fixed riding a year ago and looking for a full build with budget ~£400/500 used to £700-750 new. Lightweight steel frame preferred (not sure what's available around here - my previous was a Wabi Classic (see attached pic) with Reynolds 725. Never rode aluminum, but open to the experience. I've heard the Dolan pre cursa is a decent budget aluminum ride to start with. Anyone know if there are dealers in the city - or can you only order from them directly.
181cm tall, typically ride 55-56cm frames.
Posting here now, but I'll start searching existing posts for available bikes.
Also, are the laws here for brakeless bikes basically just; "don't get caught"... and "if you get into an accident, it's automatically your fault?"
fyi, no longer in the market - picked up a used bike a couple weeks back. thanks for the suggestions and pms.

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
