So its new bike time and i quite fancy building up another singlespeed 29er. Im not really sure whats about at the moment, my last SS was a karate monkey and i loved it. Just looking for some inspiration really.

My Ibis Tranny was really nice running SS last winter.

Why change?
The new KM looks lovely…

Salsa El Mariachi, love mine but it’s going to have to go to pay next month’s mortgage payment 🙁

Large frame, salsa hubs, crest rims, salsa finishing kit, basicly it’s stock apart from wear and tear parts.

Brother’s got a KM, wife’s got a Swift. Both very nice!

Kona Unit.

Cheap. Cheerful. Great hack.

Singular Swift? Thought the new KM does look nice.

EDSBIKES have a mint Surly Karate Monkey tricked out in at the moment.

Stooge with Moto bars- great bike. It’s got the right angles, good finish and looks fantastic. Lots of tyre clearance for winter.

Old photo- bike is now very very muddy.

+1 for Kona Unit. It’s the only bike I’ve regretted selling.

Thanks for the replies. Cokie I really like the idea of a stooge but at 6’3″ until they start making a big one I don’t think ots going to be suitable, I want a bike that actually fits me properly this time which is part of the reason I’ve sold the krampus it always felt a bit on the small side.
