Velo Orange supply an external ebb that can be used to single speed a vertical drop out bike.
I’ve just fitted one to my Stanton Slackline to see how well it performs and if it’s good enough for the SSWC in Spain later this year.
it seems fairly well engineered and the bearings are replaceable. Fingers crossed

That looks much tidier than a tensioner. I'll be interested to hear how well it works.
Looks good.
How are you finding the Hunt wheels?
Lovely looking bike and looks a tidy bit of kit aswell.
I use a PF30 push fit eccentric BB. Works well and is discreet.
That looks tidy, I bought a Gusset Bachelor for my Blender rebuild, but ended up using a ISCG 05 backplate and roller in the end as it worked better.
If you EBB works out I might try that at some point.
Bike looks great
Did you buy the bottom bracket in the UK? If so where?
It looks like fresh tripe sell them.

Looks very similar to a Trickstuff Excentricker which I've had great success with in the past.
The Hunt wheels are great; despite the recent reports of cracking. That said, I’m not pushing the limits of the wheels.
light weight, look good and ride great. And they have a life time crash replacement scheme.
Well that was awesome; quick single track test ride and it’s sweet. The bike rides better as a Singlespeed.
The bb seems to work a treat; no creak or sounds; we’ll have to see how long the bearings last.
main benefit is a clean chain line whilst using existing bolt trough rear wheel. I’ll need a 20T or something for Spain so I’ll need to see how that fits. But there seems decent adjustment on an 11sp chain.

That’s excellent! Singlespeed hardcore hardtails are so much fun!
Great work
