With or without lockring. With, I'd prefer a 17. Without, I'd obviously have no preference (jeez).
Ideally in Black, 32H @ 120mm as listed here: http://www.tokyofixedgear.com/products/191-Hubs/976-Halo---Track-Hub-Rear---Black/
Looking for a set as per the subject

That last bit was brutal! I'll probably see you next year, I'm planning on doing it again. It was a lot of fun unlike the day time one which is a suicide run!
No way I would do it in the day, especially in the temperatures weve been having the last week or so.
Riding into Brighton was a brilliant ending to it all though. Ended up bumping into 4 greek lads who were doing it fixed and we just had a chat on the way down before a good natured sprint finish.
I wouldnt say Im looking forward to it next year, but see you there anyway ;)

Were you and your friend the two ladies pushing up the hill just past crawley? I think I passed you.
It was actually a really good ride, impressed to make it in under 4 hours. That last incline up devils dyke was killer, a pensioner with a zimmer frame would have overtaken me going up that bit, stayed on the bike though. Coming back down the hills into brighton was fun. I saw a few fixie skidders, one dude I'm assuming was a messenger as he had a city sprint bag and a some nice chap who I spoke to after riding a fuji track. Hello if any of you are on here.
Got up everything except the last set of 3 and the one with the house on the bend (no idea on the geography). There was just no way i was getting up any of those on my gearing.
Kudos to you for doing it in under 4, super impressive. Bit more experience on the bike over the year and ill want to take on my time for next year

This was absolutely outstanding / devastating in equal measure. After riding for 5 months, managed to roll into Brighton just before 7am after setting off at 1am from Clapham. Fixed all the way and an awesome time but my god am i ruined.
To anyone we bumped into, and there were a few fixed riders, thanks for the banter along the way

Ride wide.
Quite scared of zombies too
Ride wide indeed. Always worth making eye contact on the way past, not in a hostile fashion. You'd be amazed what the odd 'thanks' or a nod of the head earns you sometimes (especially down The Avenue towards Clapham South).
Most scared of my back wheel being clipped. Oh and other cyclists (at times), wobbling along or not being particularly understanding about not wanting to squeeze down the inside of a stopped bus/lorry/4x4 at traffic lights. If i don't fancy it ill sit and wait, im not a courier and neither are you so get off the clock.

Yes - there are a few of us round balham. Don't know who's ride that is though.
Imagine it'll be very busy at the bowls club next month for the bike fete thingy.bike fete? tell me more. I'm knocking about on a black BLB track frame, brown Fly saddle if you see me criticise me heavily for not being able to skid
Bargain, great saddle
