my first fixed-gear was a raleigh record i got for free when a customer bought a new bike from us. he told me to do whatever i pleased with the bike, and when i saw the dropouts i knew exactly what i wanted.
ended up digging up a crank, stem, chain, and set of track drops in the back of the store and went to town. it turned out really nicely, and it's still being ridden by a close friend of mine on long island. look for it!
