Looking to build a good all-around FGFS type!

So, I'm pretty new to the world of fixed, but definitely interested! What's a good frame for bombin' around, as well as a trick here and there?

I've been looking at frames like the Def Wish, Volume Cutter/Thrasher, or the Charge Scissor to name a few.

Totally open to what ever suggestions you may have, 'cause I'd like to get it right the first time!

Thanks,
-Ryan.

Speaking of bad bike blogs, are there any decent ones out there that aren't heavy on the FGFS crap?

I usually read Pedal Consumption and Locked Cog but both are mainly freestyle, which doesn't interest me in the slightest.
