So, I saw this Raleigh frame for sale, it was in my size so I figured it might make an ok bike to ride to school. So I started shopping and deciding what to do to it, I decided on a flip flop, and that my main focus was going to be single speed to start and then try out fixed gear. My LBS sourced me a crank and cogs as well as a lock ring and a bottom bracket. I picked up some track wheels online:



and some other parts from a forum member 55/Rad-
Dia Compe Brake Levers, Ritchey Pro bullhorns and a 3t quill that has a gorgeous smokey tint

It does not have the elk hide bar wrap as pictured ill be doing something a little different.

I Picked up some Tektro Long Reach brakes as well.



and a 105 Headset



and some MKS Flat Pedals with toe clips



I still have to figure out what saddle and post to go with, i believe my post diameter is 26mm but i cant really find much so any input would help.

Here are pictures of the frame, I'm not sure on the year, but I believe its a Raliegh Marathon, I got new decals on the way, I'm trying to decide if I should sand it down and respray and then sticker it, then clear coat it. Any input will help, thanks for looking!
