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.
