Right?
Completely agree on rule 3. Both my single speeds (not fixed) are made from vintage frames, but that how I got them. As frames and built a bike around the frame. Saved it from the dump or scrap pile pretty much.
For a second I thought about converting an old sears 10 speed, but then I just hit myself in the head. Then I gave it to my brother.
