I want to build my first bike and am looking for a ladies 21inch frame or complete bike to get started on. I have stripped down a Raleigh racer and Triumph 3 speed in the past for fun but want to build something that i can be proud of.
Im not too worried about a Reynolds frame although that would be nice. I have seen a couple of these around: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Raleigh-Medale-classic-ladies-touring-bike-Clean-Gold-/280542761061?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item4151a6d065#ht_500wt_983
Would this be any good? Does anyone have anything for sale a bit closer to home? I would be looking to get it powder coated so it doesn't need to be perfect.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and just wanted to say hello to everyone.
I have recently striped and repainted a 3 speed bicycle for a friend and enjoyed it so much that i want to build my own. I am hoping to buy a light-ish frame (hopefully will be able to find something here) and build my own single speed.Does anyone know of a good mechanics course that i could take? Feel like i should know a bit more practical knowledge before i start a project. Im based in Islington.
Cheers,
Bec

I know its 2 weeks ago but did this get picked up?
