Only takes a 28mm tyre though, and that’s without mudguards. OP may want more clearance?I keep looking at building a single speed using one of these https://spacycles.co.uk/m11b0s143p4602/SPA-CYCLES-Audax-mono

Doesn’t look like it’s available in the Uk
That's a very high quality frame indeed, and super value for money at the price.
Reynolds 725 is the heat-treated version of 525, which is a weldable modern equivalent to 531, but of cro-moly rather than mang-moly, chemistry.
Essentially 725 is the 21st century replacement for 753, which in the 1970's was generally considered to be the finest bicycle steel tubing money could buy.

He certainly does and it might increase tomorrow ☺️Skipdiver don’t encourage him , biggs has more than enough Bike’s already.
I like the versatility of "Alternator Flat Mount dropouts allow for single speed setups, or 1x drivetrains with a geared dropout plate". Back in the day having a bike that could be used with derailleurs or single speed single speed was the norm'. I still use my 30 year old Reynolds 531 frame that was my tour bike as 'Fixed' on a regular basis. That frame is so old that when I do a full service rust tumbles out of the BB, so I swapped most of the components onto a Van Nicholas Yukon and converted it to day ride fixie.
I have a 2019 Flyer - it's a lovely bike, would definitely recommend it.
A real shame that it appears to have be dropped, when my red fixie frame gives up I'd have bought one of thoseMines from 2015, lovely bikes.
