    Looking for a 56/57cm track/singlespeed frame to build up a winter commuter.

    Must have a hole for at least a front brake.

    I would buy a Dolan Pre-Cursa, but they have no 56's in stock and I need it as soon as possible.

    Anyone got anything suitable?

    Would consider a whole bike at the right price....

    colm,

    what about an on-one pompino?

    http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/FROOPV3/on_one_pompino_frame_2012

    sure, it's not the lightest or prettiest frame in the world, but it does ride quite nicely, and has mudguard and rack mounts.

    and it's 99quid!

    here's mine:

    My finger slipped and accidentally ordered a 2012 pompino frame and forks in blue...

    Anyone got any recommendations on a durable wheelset?

    Have had halo aerorages on a fixie I owned briefly and they seemed sturdy enough, unless anyone can recommend otherwise I may just order a pair of them...

    Miche X-Press, had them on my Felt and while they were heavy, they were bomb proof, never needed truing. Decent bearings too, rolled nice and smooth.

    If you need a BB or cranks, I should have a Sugino Messenger crankset with BB for sale next week with 49 and 50 chainrings. A bit big I know, but just in case.

    Hmm, might be a bit big alright, but pm me a price anyway :)
