Help picking a single speed...

    As above I'm looking at buying a single speed. I've looked at the Fuji Feather, Kona Paddy Wagon and Specialized Langster. The problem is most shops either have none in stock or the only ones available for viewing are very small frames (I'm looking at a 58cm frame).

    One of the shops had a chrome edition Langster (black/chrome frame) - looked fantastic but 58cm frame is unavailable. I think it was a 2011 model and they were custom builds.

    Just wondering if anyone could recommend any of the above bikes or maybe somewhere that has a really good selection of single speeds in stock to view? Some people say I'm mad but it's going to be a BTW purchase so budget is €1k.

    Cheers

    €1k is a lot for single speed. I got mine from chain reaction.

    Sorry should have said I can spend up to €1k. Most of them are priced in around the €700 mark so add to that a decent Kryptonite, pedals and a few other bits.
