As you can tell, a real mixture of random stuff, but hey, it works.
I hacked down an old rear mech with an angle grinder for a chain tensioner, it works, but i haven't tried it off-road yet. Stripped two old cassettes for the spacers, to space the single sprocket on the freewheel. Think you could say this is single-speeding on a budget.

that has to be the best single speed device i have ever seen! should polish it up with a ano jockey wheel!

Its a start!

You will not stop now!

M500

Dont think its a M500 bud. Pretty sure they came with a Tange fork, my mates did anyway. But thats good news Prob an M700 or above

My '92 M700 came with a Pepperoni anyways - not sure about the M500 though.

heres my budget ss build. rough cost is only about £35 due to having most parts already....
