So, I want to get my kid (some kid- 27 years old) a bike for NYC. I figured a single speed frame...I have all the parts to put together a road or mtb... Looked at Performance / Nashbar for a $100 frame that I won't care if it gets really beaten up.
The road frames are sized so small that the 58-60 has a top tube of 56.5 (he's 6'1). So, I looked at the track frames. They fit, but the rear hub sizing is 120 and all I have are stock road wheels (I think road hubs are 130-ish)....What to do? What to do.
Cheap frame needed...any clues? I really want to keep it under $200
