I'm gauging interest for this as I'm considering selling, so mods sorry if this is in the wrong place but it's *probably* for sale!
I'm thinking of selling my fixie. Started life as a purple monster, and loving transformed into the beast you see below:

Rebuild thread is here (it's *not* the Dawes, I'm keeping that!)
http://www.theminifo...-bike-projects/

Basically I love it, but it's a bit big for me plus I don't really use it much anymore, and I've a few other bikes (never mind the mini) to fund. I'm 5'7" and it's on the edge for me, I think it's about 56cm but will measure it later. The paint is good, but there are a few runs / bubbles towards the front end. Not that you can see most of the time of course!
Just put new bar tape which has done about 60 miles, last weekend. The tyres are kevlar lined and there's also kevlar tape inside so they should be fairly puncture resistant!


Cost me close to £400 in parts, etc
Since the project thread I've put a front brake on it too. Key parts on it are:
Charge Dish wheels (sealed cartridge bearings, smooth rolling wheels)
Wellgo sealed magnesium pedals, grippy as hell
Half link BMX chain
Panaracer Tourguard Pasela tyres (700x28c)
I'll even throw in the rear light, it's a super bright 1/2 watt LED jobby.

I'm looking for £200 - collection only really as it's a pain to post a bike :-)
