Picking up first fixy tomorrow, any advice?

What's up everyone,


New to the FG world, but am tired of getting everywhere on foot. I was thinking about buying a used car and decided to go with this option instead (gas prices, insurance, environment, health, etc.) I went to a local shop today before I found this forum and i was looking at a 2011 model of a Fuji Declaration. If I go with that option it's gonna be $445 out the door, but being that I'm still relatively new to this area your advice would be awesome

I'm open to other bikes, but this one was a complete which I can start off with and upgrade as I get more and more involved in the fixed community. I figure if I start with a complete I'll figure out pretty quickly what I do and don't like and then I can start saving up to build my next bike from scratch.

I really want to hear your input, good or bad, just let it be constructive. I also checked out the newby sticky on the top of the threads before posting this. The link for finding the bike that works for me seems cool, but the last thing that was posted in there was from 2010.

So all advice is welcome
