I was going to build this up fixed but I've since nicked all the bits I was going to use for another build :) so its built up as a singlespeed using bits I had hanging about.
Not the best parts in the world but it gets you rolling and if you wanted to go fixed the chainline isn't bad at 43mm and is spot on with lots of the older Shimano chainsets.
Before anyone mentions it, yes the chain is too short and will be replaced so the wheel sits further back in the dropouts :) and I'll put a rear brake on as well but I wanted to take some pics while the sun was shining :)
I'm after about £180 + postage of £20
