I menat CONDOR in london being very helpful in Greys Inns Road. I really would vote them my best shop but have not been to many, the guys in Exeter Road, what are they called are also OK, but all fuckin bike shop guys are wiered anyway, but they are my best friends. OOh by the way if you are looking for singlespeed or fixie in South Africa, go to Crosstown Cycles in Kennilworth, Cape Town

buy an IRO or BLB own brand frame, same factory I've heard, probably decent (if you want a track frame)
look ok too:
£175? for BLB own.
OR come up to OCW in oxford and choose a 2nd hand road frame for pittance, and respray it at armourtex.
then think more about components, spend more on wheels and your drivechain, as these are what stops you.
Halo OTP are really good value for money IMHO.
or get someone on here to build up a set after buying the components (or DIY):Option 1: HIGH end: Up to £400.
Goldtec/profile/ phil wood
Either Aero section wheel:
CXP33/ Deep V/ DP18
or box section:
Gotta be Mavic Open ProsMed End: (up to £230)
Gran Compes + any of aboveLow End:(up to £150)
SJS/ ambrosio/ On one/.... ( I like on one- they seem better for some reason>?)- any of the above
Drive chain, Get a decent chainring- convert a road crank
goldtec, Condor, TA.Thats the majors.
Hi Eyebrows
do you need to know what condition the bike is inside crank where BB goes!!!, or what about the condition of the stem?*%$!!
so most of the frames on ebay might be crap before you get them or are most vintage frames repairable?. Ta very much soultourer
