OK, so how do I get started on a fixed? What sort of bike do I look for? Old bike with horizontal drops? What about tires, do most of you run 27x1 1/4 tires? Where do you get a fixed hub, etc.

I don't want to spend a ton of money in case I don't like it. I do have two bikes that are converted single speeds, one of them is a giant ocr with a singulator that i despise, and the other is my beater mountain bike which i love. Do you people ride these things in the rain? None of the bikes in the pic section seem to have fenders or racks. I'm sure I can think of a few dozen more questions. heh

How would this bike be?
