Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Regarding the headset, there is no such thing as a fixie-specific headset. Generally things other than frames and hubs labeled "fixie" on Amazon and eBay tend to be crappy parts that someone's trying to move cheap.
Thanks for the information, it is good to keep the options open regarding the rack/fender eyelets. Thanks for the pointers regarding Ebay. I'm just trying to find a for with the correct dimensions so i can get this bike on the road and see how the single speed world works. Right now I am a roadie, well a semi-roadie, I just don't dress like a roadie when I ride.

The rear end spacing is 125mm.
