Looking to purchase a bicycle in NY. New or Used Single Speed. Would like to spend anywhere from $200-$400. Anyone got a hook or know of a good shop? Also, any ideas of a good brand or model that may fit the bill so I can narrow down my search? Thanks!

NYC Velo, specializes in fixed gear, they are known to be the best, also bowery lane bicycles (but those are a little pricey and look nice so they will probs be stolen really fast)

might check this bike out.

Lando - can't recommend a place in NY (being on the other side of the pond) but would certainly recommend going used to max out on your budget. Good equipment will last, and is usually easier to maintain/replace (bit like IH!!)
I have this http://www.chargebikes.com/products/bikes/detail.php?id=17 which is a brillant frame and I use for local commutes . . . and a nice Boardman Carbon road bike for training . . . and (my baby) Marin MV for absolutely everything else - especially down hill directions!

And Wiggle has a decent sale on at the moment:

and they are only about 5 miles from me. Will I be able to resist…..

I know Gosport ain't Chamonix - but single speed is like really stupid if you want to bike..
-
oooh - that's heresy in some places!
-
u guys…so this one is for the ride to the brewery and back..
-
;D ;D
-
hehe…true..with that single speed you better get drunk right there..
-
yip - technically you can be drunk in possession of a bicycle . . . dunno if that applies to a forum too . . .
I'll heading for a pint or two shortly so cheers
