  1. Can anyone recommend some sites for singlespeed/fixed cycling?

    I am interested to look at any reviews of frames available in the UK. I
    know of On-One but wondered what else there is.

    The Specialized Langster is considered quite a good machine

    The links page of:

    Three blind mice, see how they run. Is this /really/ the best
    way to test shampoo?

    Cycling Plus October 06 issue had a test of four off the peg fixers:

    - On-One "Il Pompino" - £449 - overall rating 8/10
    - Pearson "Touche" - £550 - 8/10
    - Dolan "FXE" - £550 - 7/10
    - Surly "Steamroller" - £299 f+f - 7/10

    I am led to believe that Trek are also bringing out a competitor to the
    Langster although price and availability are as yet unknown.

    Cheers
