Thanks for all the replies folks… it looks like they are all much of a muchness then so I think I will plump for a kit which has a couple of sprocket sizes to get me going – well excited!
Charlies kit is good. I used it when I first converted. On my io I run 32:16 and I came 8th solo at Mayhem
Fair play MC, it was propper gopping out there – I did ride round for half a lap with an SSer on a genesis?? and they were promising never to do it again!
33:19 on my 29er with eliptical chainring
Sounds interesting RD, where did you pick up the ring? Any good?
can’t believe no one has mentioned the requisite beard, liking of cheese and beer and social inadequacies that all SSers have
oh and have a looky at MTBR as it very good for advice and less fools or one cog cycling on that facebook jobbo, couple of hundred singlespeeders from all over the world in one place to take the piss out of each other, but it’s also a great resource for info and bits of lovely kit.
Thanks for the heads up. I love beer, cheese, and am inadequate in many ways, including not being able to grow a decent beard… 🙂 I feel like I almost belong.
