Thanks for all the advice, things have taken an interesting turn...
The guy with the wheels, upon hearing my plans for building my first fixie has decided that they aren't what I'm after and doesn't seem to want to give them to me!
BUT! Today I picked up an old Holdsworth track bike from someone else on Freecycle (appropriate name, huh?) complete, but quite rusty, clincher on front and tubular on the rear, and he threw in some chequered bar tape! The only thing is I'm pretty sure the frame is too big for me, which is a shame. I may have to find something smaller.
