Next time you're looking for a frame, let me know. Applecart and I live in the same town and we buy from just about the same places. I'd love to buy and sell like he does, but I don't have the stomach now that I know better. Not that he sells crap.. just that he doesn't exactly sell what will work for everyone.

Of course, I "built" my own, and have nearly destroyed several bikes my self. But the experience is worth every penny.

ummm i never did get that fixie, built my own in the end, then got a second hand one too. Both have proper hubs though. If I were you I'd just look around for a knackered frame and pick up a cheap fixed rear wheel. By the time you pay his boxing and shipping fees it's not worth the price. Plus it's more fun to build your own.
