This seller apparently imports single speed bikes from America, I only want something really cheap to use instead of my mountain bike to commute to work - how does this look to you - any good? If you look at his other items he's got a couple of others for sale as well in different colours:

To me they look really nice and they're nice and cheap as well, what do you think the quality will be like though?

Yeaaaa I've had a go on my mates as he rides to work as well, it's good fun. I like the idea of stripping it down to basics, nice and light as well

Also it's a flip flop hub so I can change it to single speed if I want to (to be honest I probably will end up doing that)

I've never rode a single speed / fixed wheel bike but I imagine that it would get annoying.
Steel Frame as well, but then it is only 200

I was very close to getting a Cannondale Badboy last year, but they cost more than my car
