Some nice bikes on here. Anyone running one as a singlespeed? What is the gear ratio?

Can I run on with an "half" drop bar (like a horn bar)...? Do they have a real advantage over MTB?

Another Jake the Snake here:

[IMG] [/IMG]

105 groupo & Aksium wheels.
Changes I've made from stock:

Pedals - changed to Crank Bros for mud shedding.
Stem - shorter (100mm) for nipping through switchbacks a bit easier.
Bars - Shape and drop preference.
Post - wanted a layback. Also matches stem & I'm a ponce.
Brakes - Kore cantis were seriously awful. Swapped for Avids
Saddle - one that doesn't feel like a sofa.
Tyres - I'm something of a tyre swapper. My shed bulges with rubber.
Tape - double-wrapped 'cos my hands are massive.
Carbon spacers added - see 'ponce' remark.

Nice bikes how much for a cross bike frame more or less. And does it really have some advantages from a MTB...?
Plus anyone using a horn bar...?

Recently built Kinesis Crosslight Pro6. It's been tweaked a bit since building, so I should really take some new photo soon. It's now got a 41t chainring instead of the 44t shown (11-32 at the back gives a good range), and I've just replaced the rear mech hanger and rear mech too (disastrous end to the first race). Hoping for more success at another muddy race this weekend. I'm enjoying it round town.
