this was my first conversion, and its my first fixed gear bike, with the help of a few I got through it pretty smoothly and learned alot. My next move is to get a kilo tt frameset from Bikeisland in April, and switch the parts over to it.

I really wanted to do a conversion, because all I have owned has been my wellington road bike. So I searched and searched and searched until I finally found a schwinn world sport in pretty good condition at a flea market for only $30.

I got all the parts wisely so that I could switch them over to a kilo tt frameset. all I need for that is a new
