Pretty much a rolling inventory of my spare road parts. The frame is an 80s giant I brushed the paint off of and never got around to repainting and the wheels are the $100 specials off amazon with new tires, freewheel, cog, lockring and axle nuts. I love this thing. I use it more for road training than anything, but it gets moving pretty good.

I was waiting for the rain to stop before snapping some pictures.
I ordered new pedals, cages, straps and handle bars for it. And I had a Bianchi saddle from her last bike.

I paid $279 FREE shipping.

Just got my first fixed gear. Felt Brougham with a Sturmey Archer 3 speed internal gear hub.

I learned how to ride fixed while riding it home where i bought it in NYC, all the way to Queens NY. I didn't like not being able to lean into turns and dipping through traffic (pedal hit the ground twice while turning sharp) and I also didn't like the gearing (46/13 fixed). I decided riding fixie simply wasn't for me...so I went to a local bike shop, picked up a 17t freewheel cog. Not as fast top-end anymore, but I love being able to coast while zipping through traffic and at 46/17, Im definitely pedaling more and getting a better work-out.

Sorry for the REALLY late repose I over looked your post.
I really like Windsors for the price, great first bike and they have upgraded parts from when I had one back in 2006.
She has only put a few miles on it so far but I rode the Sh1t out of mine and it held up. After awhile I replaced a few components just because I wanted to but nothing broke. I rode it at least several thousand miles before selling it.
