    £500

    I built this bike, rode it for a month or so, and then went abroad for work for 18 months. Recently got back, hardly ridden and never kept it out in the wet, so its in excellent nick. Sad to sell it, but I want to buy a road bike and need the cash from this for it.

    No longer available as complete bikes from Surly- strong geometry and mint for commuting or track if you fancy it. All components are high quality- Token, Velo Orange, Shimano...

    Give me a call on 07984283269 if you interested.

    Specs are:
    Frame- Surly Steamroller 59cm
    Wheels- No Logo Deep V, 18t sprocket
    Headset- VO Grand Cru- Chrome
    Stem- Token track stem- chrome
    Bars- Token 31.8 track bars
    Drivetrain- Sturmey archer 48 t
    BB- Shimano 110mm
    Brake- Shimano
    Brake Lever- Goldfinger

    No longer available as complete bikes from Surly, they were designed as a dedicated fixed-gear, but its geometry is closer to a road bike than a track bike, so they are an absolute dream to ride. You can roll over anything and hardly feel it and the deep rim wheels give lots of kick when you set off from traffic lights but do give it a bit of extra weight... the drops make it quick to ride but i've had BMX handles on it too and they were more relaxed but just as sweet to ride.

    I bought the frame and then added the components, they are all top quality, look the shit, and I have the receipts for them all so you know this isn't a dodgy bike. Charlie the Bikemonger loves them, and makes them up for £799+ so £600 is a bargain... check out his website and you'll see the cost of them, and also the rave reviews.

    I built a steamroller up and had to move away for work... it was a gem to ride- mines a 59 and its not too heavy.
