Whisperer's single speed journey
With all this talk of Single Speeding, I thought I'd share my experience as a 'recent' convert.
I built up a bitsa for commuting, based on an MTB hardtail frame, some tired Crossmax wheels, hayes disks and odd bits I had around the shed. I got a rigid zion fork, for about $70 and that does fine for the road. No need for a lockout! 
Dabbling with Singlespeed
Hey guys, I know I'll probably be shot down for this, but I was just thinking of dabbling in some singlespeed. I was thinking of getting into it as a DIY project and just slowly build one up over time. Nothing urgent or immediate
What makes it slightly different is I was thinking of having a multi-purpose SS bike. SS to commute for added training (rather than add km's) and a SS for fun on the trails. Could this be as simple as 1 bike, 2 sets of wheels? Then there is the question of rigid fork or suspension, 29 or 26 and many others.
