Fillet brazed steel singlespeed - based around a current frame, but with a few tweeks to the angles to suit me.
Just sorting it out for painting at the moment, also finalising the BB assembly.

Mine's still in the drawing stage. Version three now. Should be delivered in July.

Nicknoxx - is it a 29er?
Who is building it, looks nice, and is it designed for a rohloff?

Yes, it's a 29er and Yes it's for a Rohloff. Being made by Lynskey. Forks from Waltworks but not unicrown as in the drawing.
It's my 50th birthday present

You're right Nomads do look crap. Not quite sure what that's got to do with this thread though. 😆

lovely bike singlespeedstu! How long did you have to wait?

I was told six weeks when I ordered it.

It took quite a bit longer than that to arrive though.
Then he had to build me another one with the measurements I'd originaly asked for. 🙄

All worked out in the end though.

oooh i want one 😉
Very expensive??? - anyone want to buy a kidney?

Interesting nic there ianpinder - thats a hell of a long tt for such a short st. Looks ace, but are you going to get full leg extension?

Actually ayatollah, i don't recall having ridden your ego chariot. I had a go of a gryphon that you [s]were mincing about on[/s] had borrowed which was actually pretty nice. Are you bring the ego chariots up north later this year? maybe will have to have a comaprative ride. 😀
And to be fair, it is also a little out of my price bracket currently.

That rourke and t'lynskey are very nice

t'lynskey - yorkshire, through and through*

Full 853 Curtis, worth every single penny, means so much to me because Mrs C paid for it for me 😆

Ayatollahofniche, yes I did notice it, gleaming at me! Shame it's too big for my short ass.

Messiah, that looks nice. You got a better pic?

...clearly singlespeedstu's got this one in the bag 🙂
