    Dawes Chevron, 23cm top tube, 23cm seat tube

    • Donor bike was sand blasted and sprayed with Plastikote Metal Protekt.
    • Signs of rust where the paint has chipped away
    • BB and Cransket are from Charlie the Bikemonger (NoLogo) 48t
    • Chain is SRAM PC 7X Nickel Singlespeed Chain from Chainreaction
    • Wheels and tyres are from a brand new Mongoose Maurice
    • Freewheel is 16T, Fixed is 15T (again from Maurice)
    • Brake and lever is from my local bike shop (standard brake size doesn't fit with 700c wheels)
    • Headset is from aforementioned bike shop
    • Seat is the original 1970's Dawes seat (mmm, comfy)

    For sale without pedals, and I'll fix the flat tyre in the pics. My first fixie project (thank you sheldon brown), but the thing was too small for me so I thought I'd give it a bash selling complete.

    Bike is in Twickenham, I'm after £200 for it.

    Cheers!

    thanks for keeping eyes on the internets, I've just got back from a work trip and now the gumtree links are dead :( it seems that I snoozed and subsequently lost.

    Hi All,
    Hope you don't mind a n00b jumping in on the thread, but I had my bike stolen from my girlfriend's car on friday night in west ealing. tried the usual gumtree/ebay/bricklane but nothing yet.

    cheers
