My 3rd road bike. I sold my other two, but I plan to convert this one into a fixed gear. What's to lose? Update - decided to build a fixed gear, so I sold this one.
Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
A Class ALX200 w/ Vittoria Rubino 700x23
Rear Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Stock w/ Vittoria Rubino 700x23

If I were you, I'd buy a new frame with horizontal dropouts if you wanted to convert this to a fixed gear.

What difference would the dropouts make? I'm not trying to be super proper about it. I just want a little project after I get my next road bike.

Conversions are not the way to go if you're wanting to ride a fixed gear. Just remember if you're new at the fixed gear to have a front brake. Also be sure the rim is machined for a break. But once you're used to riding it, go brakeless and get foot retention!!
