Yes, but I haven't started building mine yet. I can't afford a Seven Cycle frame.
I am torn between a Fuji Track and SE Draft light. They are both entry level fixed gear bikes. Does anyone have any thoughts on either of them? I test rode the Fuji Track and I really liked it, it was different, but good. I know the SE bikes are made by the same company but just cheaper.
The Fuji is a far superior bike. I'm in no way a bike snob, but the Draft is a pretty poor excuse for a bike regardless of price. I've had the opportunity to ride one at my local lbs, and the first thing I noticed were the pretty poor components and build quality. Due to it's hi-ten frame, the bike is quite heavy, and I was a bit turned off by the 1-piece BMX cranks, it would be fairly difficult to upgrade.
Unfortunately I am in Canada so Performace Bikes is out of the question.
Personally, I really like the Fuji. It's a pretty good bike for the cash. I've too been considering a new purchase, but I don't want to spend an unreasonable amount.
I know this is a dumb question, but what is the appeal of fixed gear bikes?
