Not singlespeed or fixed (yet) but thought I'd post this as I hauled it off the top of a pile of scrap at my local scrappy on Friday. Frame appeared straight and undamaged, wheels ok, just very grubby.
Mentally preparing myself to barter from a tenner down to £7, I asked the guy how much. 'Erm, three quid okay?' says he. How can you hammer someone down from three quid? Off I went with a new velocipede.
Gave it a clean, pumped up the tyres (one green one- fancy!) and off for a wee jaunt round a 12 mile loop from the house. Everything working nicely, even the saddle is fairly comfy.
Put the other one up there ^^^ on ebay as ths one will do for my occasional roadiness till I get a 'crosser.
although it would be a good excuse to buy a pompetamine frame and a P2 fork...
