Having upgraded to full roadie, my HHSB Cinelli Pista is too nice to be used solely for my 10 minute work commute, and to be frank, I'd rather be getting around town on a bike I'm not always afraid to lock up in public.
So I'm looking for a cheaper SS, something of a beater, but fun enough to ride that it can accompany me on pub rounds and excursions around London this summer (Covid permitting).
Ideally something with a fairly aggressive/track geometry, but with brakes (or at least brake mounts) front and rear. Was originally budgeting £200 for this, but could stretch to £300 if something is appealing enough.
I'm based in Hackney.
