Have forks, wheels, bars, stem etc

Have a 10spd rear hub, will buy some 2nd hand shimano cranks.
Was going to singlespeed it but what do i need?
Front chain ring.. how many teeth?
Rear sprocket and spacers?
Some kind of tensioner?
Which chain? (have a spare 9spd one sat in the shed)

Im small, light and pretty fit (pictures to follow)..

32front 16 rear.

Uou've got a number of tensioner options.

Either one that moints on the gear hanger or the bottom bracket icsg* mounts

Go with a fixed one rather than a springy thing.

*Or whatever

Let me know if you want a fixed chain tensioner (as mentioned above) i have one of these that i don't need.
Did the job fine and surprisingly quiet - no longer need as got hold of some replacement single speed specific drop outs.
