Its more like a very dark grey and possibly a blue tint... it looks the real shit anyway!!

I will get some photos up ASAP to let you have a look for yourself, but photos are never a good substitute for actually seeing it in the flesh...

Cheers mate,ye I have thanks...its built now,just need the pedals and to see if it doesn't fall apart when I first ride it!

Cool, thought so as this happened with my other fixed the first time i went on it...for one horrible moment i thought it was the bottom bracket slipping!!!
Cheers Emyr, again!

Couple more questions if you would..
Chain tension: do you require chain tensioners, i cant seem to get my chain as tensioned as id like... ive been told you dont need to?
Rear Sprocket:- is this liable to "slip" when new... when i apply pressure on the crank with my hand (ive not got any pedals as yet!) and stop it from turning it seems to slip.... is this the sprocket and will this tighten up when i ride it or do it need tightening with a tool?
Cheers again...

Thuekr - Ye, its got bottle cage drilled, cable guides and rear brake and mudguard fixings... didnt really want the holes but i wanted it without decals so this was pretty much prefect...

Oops...Cursa sorry.

Sorry it is a crank set.
its a Dolan Pre Curds FXE in matte black without decals...

Emry - ye, Ive got a Sturmey Archer crank with a chain line of 43.5mm with a 103mm BB? I will have to measure my rear sprocket and get that chainline and work from there at a guess.

Guys - thanks alot fo your help... with any luck i will have my fixie up and running this weekend...I will post photos (assuming people are interested!!!) once its complete...
once again, appreciate you help...

Emyr - yes, i have exactly that with my KMC track chain. Cheers.
So with a chainline of 45mm would the bottom bracket length be 105mm?

JB - agreed, but so far ive not done too bad...ive managed to put my grips on my handlebars!!!!!!
Thanks for the info, I pretty much thought it was as you said but needed a little confidence booster. I assume you tension the chain by getting the desired length of chain then the tension comes from the wheel position within the horizontal drops I.E. pull the wheel back and bolt.... if that makes sense.
Much appreciate your info pal

Doesn't everyone have to start somewhere...I can research myself and find out but thought the general fixed wheel community would help...

and how to fit a chain haha!!sorry, i am useless! But i will say the finished product should be worth a photo on here, if i don't mind saying so myself!!!

Cheers guys...
Also - anyone know about chainline with these wheels and what bottom bracket length is required?

Really that simple...ha! Sorry, im a pleb and this is the first time ive built a bike! Cheers for the reply pal.

Hi - I have just received my V-Sprint custom wheels which look and feel superb.

I have the Quando hubs with an 18T fixed sprocket on the rear, can this hub add a freewheel cog to allow it to be a flip flop?

Cheers

varno - no worries at all...just wasnt sure if you got the order. I think i have asked for the delivery address to be changed. Speak Monday no doubt, thanks again.

rogan - cheers for that.

Varno - cheers... i have actually ordered now, unfortunately forgot to put the discount code in, probably getting too excited!! Not got any confirmation email from V Sprint as yet ?
I went for the black in the end...one question is can you take the stickers off or have them removed?
Cheers

pistoffski - if you want me to be!

I don't need another bike... And my dearly beloved would cut my balls off...

HAHA! agreed!

Steel bikes help!

Ive just got a Dolan Pre Cursa FXE in matte black without decals... will post a picture when i get full access here!
I am struggling with the decision of wheelsets...defo V-Sprint Deep V, either the yellow or gloss black, I have a pair of red Schwalbe Blizzards and was going to theme the bike with gloss black bars, stem, chanset, with white saddle and white end grips...
Saying this, do you know how difficult it is to find bullhorn pursuit gloss black bars!!!!

Hi - I can defo going to buy some of the Deep V V Sprint wheels. Im just struggling to choose either the yellow or gloss black. Have you any pictures of these wheels? The pics on the site aren't that brilliant.

Thanks
