Shops to get a Fixie under 300 quid?

    I'm looking to buy a fixie within the next week or two and I'm wondering if anyone can recommend me a few shops around the city that would be a good place to get a fixie from. So far I've only been up to Rothar in Phibsboro and they said they would build me up one for 300 quid but I'm hoping to see if I can find somewhere a bit cheaper than that.

    I've seen a few that look decent on Adverts but I know barely anything about bikes so I think I would prefer to buy from a shop.

    Thanks for any suggestions.


    *Also if you're looking to sell your fixie just let me know, I might be interested*

    Im building 1 soon, havent painted the frame yet(either black or white, with custom decals), I can keep it under 300. new parts will be fitted with some vintage parts, wheels and tyres will also be new.
    I can build to your spec within reason. send me a msg if your interested.

    also, best to read up more before you go spend your money, theres alot of chancers out there tryin to make a quick buck.

    These guys will be selling fixies for just under 400, maybe a little over your budget. But you can pick any combo of colours you want (literally, pick a different colour for every component if you want) and get custom lettering on it.

    http://www.facebook.com/funkedupfixies The proper website is going live tomorrow. I know the guys setting it up and I've been on the bikes. Quality build.

    Thanks man I might message you about that if I can't find a shop in town that would do it.

    The bikes look great but I really am not interested paying that much to be honest, thanks for letting me know though!
