Hi guys and ladies.
Arrived in Pert,WA. First thing I noticed, the roads are perfect. Instant need for fixie launched into my mind. Going to stay on William street until I find a place to stay longer. Already spotted many fixies.
I will be very thankful, if anyone suggests me good shops or roads or bikes for sale.
Best Wishes to you all.
Gumtree for second hand bikes.
Facebook, join bike jam for rides/general chit chat.

Elite Cycles on Beaufort St, Northbridge has a solid range of off-the-shelf stuff. Not cheap though.

So helpful. Thank you genius
Makes sense to me. If you want tyres now, go to a bike shop.
If you want tyres later at a sensible price, buy online.

Maxxis detonator shouldnt be any more than $20-25 each at a bike shop. About as cheap and cheerful as you will get.
Otherwise, as avymetal said, online.

Look for something with at least 80 gear inches.
considering your new, acting like a douche is not recommended.

My LBS charges $12-15 for a tube! Then again, Vegemite is more expensive at my local as well.

Can’t tell the quality before I pick them up.
