Winter is here and the mud is grinding the gears/pivots on your lovley full sus to a paste so usual form
Show us your single speeds

P.s this is also to inspire me for a build under way as I regret selling my sanderson.

Well, it is a singlespeed…

Been out on old faithful this weekend. 60 hard miles in the hills. This bike must be 8 years old now!

I don’t mountain bike much nowadays though. This is what gets most of the miles

Just needs a chain, pedals and grips and it’s ready to roll 🙂

Ragley TD-1 29er with kona P2 triple butted forks

When it used to be singlespeed

It’ll probably go back to SS as the gears are being put back on the full sus I’m getting.

2015 Genesis Flyer before the guards went on it.

another one of those cannondales, it looked a bit too bling so I had to tame it down with a tatty saddle and a bit of destickering.

Tubeless, upgraded bars and cranks

My only mountain bike.

Im conscious that I only ride short sharp climb and drop loops on it of less than 1hr here on Mount Malvern. DO other SS riders do similar or do you ride longer, but flatter rides? I ride maybe 3 or 4 times a week, in the dark, in the crap weather. But still about 1hr at a time.

My Unit-

oh and this as well now

Stoner.

Short sharp blasts for me too. ATM my back can only manage about an hour. There’s no riding from my door, there is but it would be longer on the road than in the woods, so I end up driving for longer than I ride.

Tazzy.

You’re a tart of the highest caliber.

(Not jealous, not jealous, not jealous)

One of each flavour, the latter seems to be my goto bike these days.

Oh, here’s my gopping monstrosity.

I need more ss bikes 🙂

Underneath all the crap it’s an On One Whippet

Bought very second hand for £500 two years ago and has since done another 5,000km, half of them with rigid forks

Most recently broke the Trans Cambrian Way record

Amazing XC race bike cum all-purpose training bike for those wet Welsh winters

OS Bikes Blackbuck2

bigblackshed – are you the other side of Heref? Do you ever ride at Haugh Woods?
Where do you drive to for your 1hr blasts?

Just built this weekend with spare parts. Frame and the few new bits I needed cost a sum total of £150 so quite pleased with the results 🙂 It could do with a new saddle though.

Just this once. Crap picture, great bike:

This thread is missing some Singulars……

Stoner.

Hereford City. I ride Haugh Woods (shhh, it’s all cheeky), but at the moment with the rain it’s all sticky plasticine. It’s about 6-7 miles from me. Doesn’t sound far, and would be a nice warm up if my back wasn’t so bad, but in reality it’s an hour on the SS there and back. I don’t know many of the trails TBH. It’s all a bit hush-hush. Nobody is very forthcoming with showing anyone else around.

There’s more riding over towards West Wood. It all connects up. But again I’m not in the inner clique.

Normally ride the FOD, I work down that way so ride with the guys from work. It’s becoming a bit samey though.

It’s becoming a bit samey though.

I ride the same loop every night 😳

But the same loop in the dark can feel very different and normally very fast. It feels like your going mach2 when in reality your going about 3mph.

And don’t forget the eyes. 😯

This one too

Oh, and a Salsa Marmasita I don’t have a photo of.

Out for its second ride of the year this Thursday…

Nice to see a lot of stiff frontage action

Check out my girth 😯

Might as well add to the Stooge love.
