As http://lenni.info/edd/ is currently down or my work computer wont let me onto it could someone help with spoke length or recommend another calculator to use (preferably one that is as easy!!)? I have a set of On One Large Flange Track hubs and 32H Velocity Deep V rims.
Cheers for the help in advance

I have new rims and currently looking for a rear hub that I am aiming to have built up. If anyone would like to offer wheel building expertise in exchange for some parts that would be cool too. I bought the Charge wheels on here and got a good deal so therefore selling them on for what I think is a good deal.
If the bike doesn't sell then I will strip and use/sell parts where I can. Does someone want just the f+f without all the rest???

So this is my first fixed gear bike and I've now decided it's time to try build something up myself (try being the operative word).
Its a 56cm Fuji Track which I bought in 2009. Additions have been a front brake and have changed the wheels to the Green Charge Dish wheels which I bought on here previously. I will be putting some standard pedals on it plus the original saddle and taking off the lights before I hopefully sell. There is a small tear on the bar tape on the right had side and a few cosmetic scuffs as you would expect but nothing major.
I can either split the frame and wheels to sell seperately but ideally would like to sell them together.
Pricewise I'm thinking £230 is reasonable but open to offers. Also if anyone has anything to part exchange I might also be interested. Starting a new build from fresh and have only got the wheel rims at the minute so open to suggestions.
Its probably best if you PM me and I will send you pictures but I will try to upload some later tonight too.
Cheers

Hey,
I'm moving tomorrow to a smaller place and have to get rid of a load of junk in my room quickly.
4 wheels ( one set came off a Raleigh Equippe I bought of Hilary on here and the other set from a random frame. The random set - rear had a coaster brake but I don't know if this would still work or whether it has missing parts) Not the best condition not the worst but may be useful to someone. There are old tyres on them also.
1 Frame with forks, handlebar, brakes (i think), cranks and rear mud guard - Beater female frame in red think it has Hallmark written as the make.
1 Raleigh female frame that I got off here for free but never got around to organising myself to do something with it. Fairly bad condition but may be of use to someone. No forks.
Can be collected in Clapham South tomorrow or possibly Stoke Newington/Stamford Hill in the late afternoon or Sunday. If close to either then I could probably drop them to you.
All free or if you would like to give beers or a donation to the forum then all the better.
Also if anybody wants to buy an Ikea bed frame and set of drawers they are going for £40 and can be delivered close to Clapham if necessary. Can send pictures tomorrow if interested.
Just PM me if anyone is interested.

Hi Guys,
Been on the forum for a while with not much posts but here goes.
I have really hurt my back with what is called a lateral shift and have to go for an MRI next week and i'm guessing the news won't be good!!
Anyways I have been riding a Fuji Track and I have decided to sell that due to not being able to ride and I would like a project to build while I'm not able to ride.
I'm looking at around £300 for the frame which so far my options include Brothers frame, Surly Steamroller, IRO Angus but is there something else that somebody could advise. I love the Brothers frame and I think that vintage style is the way I want to go. I love the vintage look of bikes so if there is something vintage then that is even better. I'm not interested in tricks just having a bike that gets me there fast!
Any advice on frames, parts and whatever else would be really appreciated because I want this to be a project while I'm not able to ride and have something that I love when my back is ready to ride a bike again.
I'm sorry that this sounds familiar to people and they are sick of giving advice but I just feel I need the help. I will make sure to give a contribution to the site on any help that I get and being Irish I really hope I can be ready for the next Guinness ride whenever that is!!!
I am also looking for a new place to live at the moment around Islington etc so if anybody knows anything around there then all the better. Any help I will definitely be up for meeting for a beer/guinness/coffee so please help me out.
Btw the Fuji track and the parts of my Dialled Prince Albert will be up for sale soon so keep an eye out on the classifieds
Cheers lads

Thanks OldSkoolRacer, just used Edd calc this morning and it has come out as Front 277.9 and Rear 277.3. so that gives 2-3 mm difference to yours. Should i get them somewhere in between the two?
Cheers again for any help
