  The advantage of band on components is that when you remove the gears and the back brake there will be no redundant brazed on cable guides - it will look much cleaner, cooler and more like a track bike like this.

  There's no indication of the brand or tubing in the ad but I think it would be a good one just because it's a nice looking bike and all you'll *need *to shell out for to convert it is a new rear wheel (assuming all the other bits are fine).

  It's cheap at the moment although there have already been 18 bids so there's obviously a lot of interest.

  Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the advice. I'll see how much it gets up to but I like the look of it...not sure about the colour though.

  Hello all, long time lurker, first post. I'm after a bike to convert and was wondering about this one?

  What are the advantages of the band on components?
