    Hi looking for a nice frame or full bike to build up a Fixie. On a pretty low budget but I'll pay for a nice clean frame. If anyone has what I'm looking for let me know. Cheers.

    I have a Charge Plug Freestyler frame and fork that I'm thinking of upgrading. It's a size large, I think it's a 57cm top tube, seat tube's 62cm from centre to top. I'm 6'1 and have a fair bit of seat post showing. It has an FSA Orbit headset installed, and I'll throw in the 103mm JIS BB.

    Make me an offer if you're interested.

    Have you bars and stem for it or just forks? I'll have a think about it and come back to you with an offer.

    Yeah I have either risers with Oury grips and a 3ttt Forge Ahead stem, or an FSA Vision stem and Cinelli drops.

    Is either of the stems a race or quill stem? I'd be interested in the risers and 3ttt stem with it. How much would you want for them parts?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,738 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    The fork's 1 1/8 so you won't be able to use a quill stem. 3ttt stem is a 25.4mm clamp. I'd be looking for 30 quid for the stem and bars, they've been cut down to 45cm.

    I'm on two minds about buying a 2nd hand fixie or just biting the bullet and building my own bike.

    That's fine hate quill stems anyway. Whats the best you can do for the Bars,frame,Forks and Stem?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,738 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    I'd be looking for around 120 for the frame and forks, and 30 for the bars and stem, so probably 140 for the lot

    Hi could you send me some pics?

    I have a 1980's BH Vision.......in good enough nick with 14 speeds - if that is what you call a fixie. It needs brakes, handlebar grips and possibly a respray and probably tyres. No rust. I dont have the time or interest at the mo.
