Great big Singlespeed thread!
- Thread starter kaiser
- Start date
My SS history:
'10 SE Stout, swapped to a 34t FSA & Ritchey Truegrips after one ride....
Sold the Stout picked up my Klein(also now gone).
Started like this
Ended up like this, 36/18 magic gear. The whell is against the front on the dropout.
The Klein is gone but I have a 1990 Fisher Montare frame/fork on the way for my next singlespeed, Mainly so I don't have to worry about this one sitting outside the bakery/store/wine festival(we are in Germany) with the wife/kids:

1X1 many guises
Having posted my 1X1 before I thought I would update with a few changes that have gone on with this very versatile frame:
Usual running and original build for last few years, V brake equipted XS size 14'' running 32 x 16 on 26's:
Then this summer, well August, tried out som 29'er wheels, minimal clearance but fit fine, also finally fitted my BB5's:
This pic is before it was finished.
And finally last week I laced up my rims that I have had sitting in the loft for a few years, some Spank Stiffy's onto Deore disc hubs.
Again pic from before I put the chain on and rode away.
Really love this bike, easily the most fun bike I've ever owned.
Now have a Pugsley frame, fork and wheels to build up into my winter SS
