Strip and rattle-can laquer a shitty generic fixie frame,
Add bog standard Shimano bottom bracket, hson wheels, foam bar grips and a cheap As stem and cranks.All made spare parts except stem and grips and chain. 20 something quid. and hopefully ideal for commuting in the rain or trips to the pub.

If anyone gets offered this BLB/Velocity Aero front wheel don't buy it, it was knicked off my bike in Central London today, opposite the National Portrait Gallery entrance, right outside a heaving busy Pret, for f*%k sake.
Or, if you do get it offered it and want it, buy it (I only payed £30 odd for it on ebay), then kick whoever you buy it off right where it hurts, the little
b*%&tard.(Thanks for the staff at Leicester Square Underground station though who let me take what was left of the bike home on the tube, though.)

I'm after a cheapish rear wheel for my rainy day bike. Preferably sealed hub, preferebly deepish rim (this isn't vital though), and preferably as near to true as possible.
Don't really want to spend more than £50 or so.
Am in London and ideally would like to collect in person.
