The Term "Fixie"
Hello List:
Can someone explain the term "Fixie" vs: "Fully Restored".
I have been bitten by the vintage Roadbike restoration bug,
and am in the process of restoring three different bikes;
Schwinn "World Sport"~"Peugeot PX-10"~"Fuji Monterey".
All are at least 20 + years old, so I assume they can be called
"Vintage"? Would a true restoration mean, "as close to a all
original Mfg. installed parts as possible or something less than
that is acceptable.
My acqusition cost for all three bikes is less than $60 dollars,
so I'm restoring them with as many original parts as I can find.
Thanks in advance; Tony Holly
