i've been wanting a fixie bike for a while now, and since i have this old '80s bike, i figure i can use some of its parts to make a new bike (i cant use the old '80s one because its too big). so today me and my cousin MIKKO went to LA for bike part hunting. everything was way too expenisive and complicated (old parts dont fit with new parts, blah blah blah), so i came home empty handed.
BUT, thanks to MIKKO, we found this good fixie on craigslist, going for $340. it was only 6pm when we found it, so we decided to check it out, since it was only in fullerton. when we checked it out, everything was completely copecetic, and i bargained the guy to let me have it for $300.
its a really good deal: it has a size 53 cm centurion frame, a white turbo seat, japanese wheels, and a gold bike chain (those go for $80!)... just to name a few parts... all for $300.. nice right?!
now all i have to do, is get a handbrake (i dont know how to skid yet), a new back tire, and pedal cases, and im set!
oh yeah, im going to paint the fram white, and the wheels white too. so it looks all clean and fresh... nah mean?!?!
