About thirty years back, a chap at work was selling his 3 speed Universal bike (Polish built). He only wanted £15 for it. He bought it in one day , I duly paid him.
It looked ok on first inspection, until I went to ride it home. It wouldn't go in a straight line. On a very close inspection there was a crease in the downtube, and the forks were very slightly bent. He denied it had been crashed.
I used it as a doner bike for another one, but in reality it was £15 badly spent. He left work soon after.

"Fixed gear track bikes have become affiliated with the streets of New York, but they are the latest influence to arrive from America to the UK."

The cheeky sods. We were riding fixed wheels while they were still stealing land from the Sioux.

^_^ That's for sure! They couldn't think of a better slogan to entice customers. It's for a certain audience who are more likely to buy the product they want.
