tried and had maassssivvee fails on toe clips so spds are the way, and theres not that much wrong with fixed,well apart from the blatant danger, the super tight jeans, the purpleness and running through a tyre every 2 weeks, shit hang on!
But now you won't be able to fit into your sisters pants! I'm a really skinny guy, but the day I ripped the stitches on my jeans with my quads was one of the proudest days of my life... sniffle.
solid build. you should look in to a legit track frame with track ends. and it looks like it might be a little big with the lack of seat post you have.
I totally understand the cheap frame. I'm not sure about international distribution but Leader Bikes are pretty solid and offer quite a few different frames now. and they arren't to much. that is what i have.
Hey man if tour local I work in the bike shop in Stratford so feel free to pop In, also this isn't my bike anymore so keep an eye out for a deeper colured purple fixed gear
