summer project

[got-to-get-fit]

Im looking to start a summer project of building a fixed gear bike.

I have absolutely no experience of bike building and am poor at best at simple bike maintenance but i thought what better way to learn than building a bike from the ground up.

Does anyone know of any easy to follow web sites or videos that would help me?

Also im thinking of buying one of these frames as a starting point....does anyone have any experience of them?

The website link is below and also a picture of the frame

Dunno about that frame, but On-one are doing Pompinos for £99 at the moment

in terms of sites to help, have a look at sheldon brown's website and park tools.
