I'm not a fixie guy, but it would make a good one. I remember the only thing I did to mine was getting rid of the suicide brake levers and finding an old-style set of better road brakes for it. It has the long brake bolt and nut, so be careful if you do that....you don't want the internal-type unless you want to drill your fork.
Yeap, the bike rides beautifully. The frame isn't the lightest and thats why i want to turn it into a fixie or at least a singlespeed.
