Looking for old steel framed classic road bike to convert to a fixie. I need a project to pass the time while stuck at home. Make, model and condition not important. Free or on the cheap. I am thinking bikes that's been sitting in the back corner of the basement for the last 10-20 years.!! LOL. Steve S

How would you feel about an almost-imperceptible hairline fracture near the bottom bracket? :D

He said he's a bit flexible on price, but I doubt he meant $50. Let me know if you want his contact info to negotiate.
