I'm 18 and this is my brothers account, sorry for putting a bike i spent loads of time and money on for a price that would just about see me even!!! You guys could potentially give me some advise for what its worth etc and start proving you all know something about fixies rather than just claiming you do and then ripping the piss out of me!! I pity you people sad enough to slate me without showing any means of being anything other than demeaning critics, you know so much then why not help the new guy out? Seriously, this fixie community's damn hostile!!!

Hi there,
Not sure what kind of size frame you are looking for. I have two steel frames and one reynolds steel frame available at the moment. Was going to strip them down (sand blast) and then have them repainted. If your interested I can have this done for you or you can make me an offer on just the frames as they are.
Cheers

Hi all,
Am currently reconditioning a number of bike frames for fixie use/ conversion. Just wanted to see what the general concensus was for the finish: would people prefer to buy a frame already painted or just a sand blasted frame ready to be painted? I can do both so just wanted some thoughts.
Cheers

Still nothing constructive to say, interesting that!! How do you expect someone to know the fixie world without any prior experience?
