My first true fixie build

Ok so I started out with wheels. These are Amelia wheels in purple from Eighthinch
I bought these originally to go on a Raleigh bike that I was going to convert into a fixie, but I ended up selling it.
So I had wheels and nothing else, then I found the Scrambler V3, an awesome frame and then my build started!
Bought everything ( not pictured; Shimano BB, Origin8 white saddle, green headset, green peddles, and green handlebars, no-name spacers and stem, and micargi cranks), and got Kevin to custom paint my chainring, seatpost clamp and seatpost.





Got it built, but still felt it was missing something
Oh yeah; a front brake, grips and my painted parts!
I love it, but I still wanna build more. It's scary, my wife wants me to have hobbies and building bikes and sewing are fun but they get expensive.
