'hercules' by aaron neville, over and over and over again..

cheers, yeah I was considering the giant bowery from pearsons. well cheap, but I dont like the sloping top tube at all.

haha nice one man, my dad tells similar stories from when he used to cycle and one of his mates used to do that to cars a few times. dont think my dad would be brave enough to actualy do it himself though..

Hey everyone,

i'm new here, been lurking for a while now, trying to decide between a charge plug or surly steamroller for my first fixie. At first I really liked the plug but I think ive been put off by reading how heavy it is! is it much heavier that the steamroller then?

i'm 6'1, and thinking of getting a size 58. I will prob be getting it from brixton as its local and ive heard good things about them.

are you looking for a cheap-as-you-can build or a modest, mostly new build?

im thinking a modest, mostly new build probably, but it depends on how much its gonna cost me.

thanks for replies guys.

cheers for the replies.

that link u gave me was very useful :P

hi,

i've got an old raleigh record class bike that someone gave me for free, and I'd really like to convert it to a single speed (not fixed) to use for riding across town to the pub.
i'd like to spray the frame and do it up so it simle and nice, but i've no idea how much it will cost for all the parts, so i dont know if its gonna be worth doing?

i'm not good at building bikes but someone is willing to help me, so i (hopefully) wont have to pay for any labour.

could someone please give me a rough idea of how much everything else would cost if i only have a frame and forks to start with? i spose i would just use low end shimano stuff.

any advice would be helpful,

thanks.
