SS or 1x9??? 32t Snail NW ordered

[kyle888]

Trying to decide what to go for.
I feel attracted to SS for the silence and lightweight plus my new frame has sliding vertical dropouts.

I have no front derailleur so was thinking either buy a NW ring or an SS conversion.

My bike is full rigid 26er with bb7 discs.

Lets hear your thoughts

You can always change it up later if you find you never change gear.

Re:

Singlespeed, you've got the sliding dropouts, it'd be rude not to!

Tbh the weight loss you don't notice, the change in noise is nice though.
