So I was keeping an eye out for a bargain retro road ride to enable me to go on the Herefordshire meet. My eye happened upon this and I Bought It Now...

But! I didn't look very closely at it. And now I look more closely I see that the derailleur looks awful tight... and no cables are in evidence... it seems that I might have bought a bike that has been converted to singlespeed but, unbelievably, hasn't been listed as such! Incredible that anyone would sell a bike without writing "fixie SS conversion retro scene LFGSS bike polo" all over the listing.
So my question is... does anyone have a nice 7-speed 700c rear I could buy? And are those track hubs worth £30 if not?!
