2013 Genesis Fortitude Singlespeed

... but I built a new frame for it then went singlespeed

Got any photos of that? How did you make the frame?

These must have been from before I built a fork to go with it.


The frame actually used the front triangle of a frame I'd built a couple years earlier. Originally it'd been a fixed wheel gravel bike so was 120mm spaced, no provision for a rear brake. I just chopped the rear end off a and built it a new one.

Original build and during the modification.

Nicely done!
Very impressive.

I‘d like to ask for how long you used the belt drive, but since the hub died a premature death it probably was not more than a chain would have lasted, right?
