I think its cool lads, when me backs not playing up I cycle into work on a fixie, just thought that would be a bit more BMXy  :-\

I want to build a fixie just as a bit of fun, if I could use this frame and forks that'd be awesome 8)

Here you go mate, from the SE site-

The Quad Fix frameset has the same high-end engineering & quality as the Us Versus Them frameset; fully heat treated frame & fork, sealed integrated headset, cut-out seat tube for large tire clearance, mid BB, and 14mm rear axle slots & comes equipped with adapters for 3/8” axles. The Quadangle frame design not only is the most unique looking frame on the market, but allows for an extremely low standover as well. The forks accept pegs. Available in 3 sizes: S (47cm), M (51cm), L (56cm)

My current frame is 56cm, I'm six one & if fits me purfik.

Think it'll look cool, switch these part over to the quad frame, nice & stealth & BMXy.

fixies are trendy and bent !!!  :2gunsfiring_v1:

Well I aint trendy but I am a bit bent.

There ace, if you live in flatsville there the best way to get about.

Theres a reason couriers have been using them for years, long before any annoying beardy trendy london cnuts gave them a bad name, & like OS BMX, theyre good to look at.  ;)

seen a lot of fixies & thought they looked cool if you need a bike with bigger wheels than a BMX
good option if you don't want to dress up in spandex to use a road bike

not much good to me though living on top of a hill

Give TRITON BIKES  a go! i went to there warehouse last week and spoke to MR Triton himself,
He told me that he had just got back from SE Racing where ever they are and has become the agent/distributor for SE in the UK.

I see the point in fixies, i have one I made 3 or 4 years ago, but why would you need 14mm axles and peg clearance?

bonkers

Dunno, think some people do tricks & that. I just think it looks cool & BMXy.

Current one sits in me hall so I see it quite a bit, always loved the look of the quadangle so makes sense for my requirements.
