[Closed] Where are all the fixies/singlespeed etc bikes for sale?!!!!

If you get onto the Mumford and Sons website, they have a classifieds section where they sell flat caps, tweed waistcoats and fixies. They're all on there

LFGSS. Don't use the fixie word though.

Had a look- again bloody pricey tbh.

isnt the point that you dont BUY a SS?

you make one from old bits of bike and sellotape and wotnot

I'll see you my Kona Unit for £1000 and personally deliver it. Bargain.

As you've said Hora, they're all on eBay with stupid bright coloured wheels and massively inflated prices. Might be cheaper to buy an old sh*tter of a road bike and an SS kit and 'lovingly' convert it yourself...

Felt Brougham? singlespeed/fixie flip flop, you can get a 2013 model for £299 if you look around.

I fear the hype has sent the prices upwards...

For SS any hardtail you want/already own + [url= http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/bikemongers-complete-kit-1-p.asp ]£47.99[/url] it's not difficult and there are cheaper ways if you like to bodge.

Mango bikes.

Nice bikes cost money regardless of the number of gears they have. Both of my fixed wheel machines cost ~£1000

Exactly! This has the added advantage nowadays of, when you realise that not having any gears is stupid, you can then punt it on to some flat cap bedecked cockwomble, sporting a moustache like a World War one era Prussian general, for 5 times what it cost you to build, so he can go and lock it to railings outside coffee shops in the Northern Quarter

I offered you mine but you never got back to me so I sold it to a student who'd had his nice one nicked.

Fixed gear has dies a bit of a death as it was quickly adopted by the hipster crowd. Everyone that I know has gone back to freewheel but maybe that's because fixed isn't ideal for the local area.

Also don't you already have frame and forks from Morton?

Thanks for that hora - would have been nice if you'd replied to my email rather than starting another post on here

Moron

flange what email?

The one to me asking for pictures of my singular which i replied to. standard lack of response ..

[url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fs-most-of-a-kona-unit-ss29er-19 ]this[/url] any good?

flange you sent pics but on reflection I didn't think I'd pay £600 for it. I didn't say 'go on then' or dibs etc. Just pics please. Why is anyone a moron? £600 is alot if you just want a mucking about commuter/pub bike.

I thought I'd bought a Genesis Day One today- seller had two Marks mixed up, not a biggy it happens. Using your scale of disproportion shouldn't I be smashing up my pc now?

Hora I have a 19" white genesis altitude frame which I ran SS, which you can use to build up your hack SS with one of charlie's kits - £86 posted.

The best thing(s) about my SS are a) it cost about 150 pounds b) I did the 'work' myself.

Roadframe + stw begging threads + LBS bargain bin + LBS "I need a... I've got biscuits...." + Dremel/tin of nitromors/can of cheapest paint & laquer from halfords

Cheers guitarhero/Krypton- has to be a full bike. I can't muster the energy with sourcing/fixing up/bits etc.

Really regret selling my Fuji track bike for £120 a couple of years ago now 🙁

Hi Hora I have my cross check up for sale in the classifieds if your interested, dead easy to single speed due to horizontal dropouts.

My genesis day one will be up for sale soon .. Nice custom build .. Only issue is wheels are showing sgns of wear but some life left ..

Size 54

My old SS. Tatty frame (Reynolds 525 GT Timberline) was a tenner off ebay. Nitromorsed and powder coated. New drive chain and headset. The rest built up with parts kicking about in the garage, or scrounged off mates. Total outlay £100-120-ish

Its traditional that your hack/pub bike ends up doing more miles than any of your 'proper' bikes. Oh… and its illegal to clean them. EVER! Thems the rules!

Have you searched 'cycleshops2013' on fleabay ??? They seem to be knocking fixies out for around £200.

Here you go. Not mine, but I've got one and it's lovely:

Specialized singlecross in a size 56 any good? Needs a little tlc but not much, just had new bb and chain, needs new tyres plus the bars have been cut down but still have the drop brakes for it I think. Will sell for £100 plus delivery.... pm if interested....

Award for the not-so subtlest WTD ad goes to.... 😉

doesn't sound like you warranted the 'Moron' there hora
and a week's fair enough after a previous wanted add even tho this isn't ; )

[i]binners[/i] - 'cockwomble' i'm having that
