I am thinking of putting together a few singlespeed builds based around the EBB Chumba HX1 for the winter, but what price would punters want to pay, and what sort of component’s would you like to see at the price point?

Be sensible please…..

Pulls up comfortable chair and sits down with a piece of string and a tape measure…

About £900 with Recon Maxle and SLX wheels doesn't sound too unreasonable on a £500 frame.

could you offer a sort of semi-custom deal, kinda like santa cruz where you have a couple of build options but with upgrades to forks?

That may be a little tight ( i need to make SOME money!) but i get your drift.

possibly, but it would mean more stock to buy and ideally i would like to keep it simple, obviously if someone asked then bits could be changed for an up charge.

Full xtr for £650 😀

Seriously I have no idea…surely the appeal of your stuff is that one does a custom build, and aren't most ss'ers fussy "look at me" idiots who want to put random stupid stuff on their bikes for not point at all?
