My first fixed gear bike and my first build - going to be used for commuting and for fun, something I can tool around on, reserving my road bike for racing and training. It was a blast just to collect all the parts and build it up and it's even more fun to ride.
Converted to a track bike weekly, using 46x14, and replacing the cockpit with another stem and bars.
