lefty fork and middleburn cranks is pretty bling!
I'd say that was pretty bling Teetosugars
[i]thisisnotaspoon[/i] - Love the orange on your El Mariachi.
The Kona Unit looks nice as well, the old style graphics Kona now use is much nicer than their previous attempts.
Here is my spaceframe SS anyway....

Bling singlespeed? Mine spends 80% of the time covered in mud the other 20% covered in dust.
Hopefully bling, completely monocrhome apart from the lovely gold chainring, mmmm. More pictures found on my [url= http://maxengineeringdesign.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/custom-artworkd-dingle-speed-monster.html ]blog (shameless plug)[/url].

amplebrew - Memberthisisnotaspoon - Love the orange on your El Mariachi.
It's ace, my favorite bike color by a very long way, it's an orange with a metallic gold fleck.
Gold hubs and chain in the shed to go on it at some point, but the hubs are in some other wheels and the chains shortened for summer gearing. Forks need dropping to 80mm though as the lower headset adds quite a lot of height over the internal headset. Tempted to re-lace them into some velocity p35 rims, but already have 3 sets of 29er wheels in varying bling levels and only one 29er!
Postierich that Indy Fab is sweet as F..k
Euanc what make if bike is that? its nice

It's lovely, definitely the nicest colour they've done IMHO.

The frame isn't bling, but that aside…

And yet again I will now say, I really must get a better picture at some point.

Euanc what make if bike is that? its nice
It is a 2Souls Slim Jim, absolutely brilliant bike which I will be very sad to see go in a month or so!
Like that Mantra. It must bob a bit when you're putting the power down though, no?
That WTB Phoenix is lovely 8)
The Mantra actually works really well as SS. It's a URT design so tends to lock out due to the pressure from the pedal stroke and also the chain length doesn't change.
The Phoenix and the Klein don't get out as much as the Inbred but both get used when the sun is out. I took the Klein around Swinley last year and it got quite a few comments but then it is more obviously unusual looking.
The Phoenix is pending some rigid steel forks. I really wanted to put Potts Type 2 forks on but the cost is a bit silly so going with Salsa Cro Moto.
Nice Ibis. I had a steel Single Malt on order from them when they went out of business back in about 2000 or 2001. I never got the bike unfortunately (they never charged me though).
what in the name of god is that !
I don't normally comment on such things but that is a hell of a lot of arse perch tubing on show.SEATPOST ALERT!
My SS has not seen a lot of cash (or indeed riding time) thrown at it recently so I'll decline, bit* of a part time SSer lately
Weeksy ^^^ klein mantra, guy near me has a black one, not SS iirc
*even more so than usual
so many bikes in this thread would make the sweet baby jesus cry 🙁
How can you confuse scrap iron with bling? 🙂
It's got Klein written on it, therefore it is bling, fact. 😆
I'd post my Niner, it being the blingiest of them all and worthy of a page all on it's own, however due to the fact that I can't post pics from where I am you will all have to imagine what a thing of beauty it is.
Ohhhh no, it's waaaaayyyyy better than that 😉
If this thread is still going by the end of summer, I should be able to add something minty green and made just for me 😀
How can I post a pic without it allowing you to look through my Flickr photos??

So true. The two 2souls are the nicest.

That Blacksheep looks like it was designed by a fullblown mongtard.
I've still got the Ti Blacksheep seatpost from it if you want to make me an offer?
It'd finish it off nice. 😉
Still think it looked betterer when it had a bit of King Mongo tat bolted to it. 🙂

Yeh its even more mongier since its got a blacksheep 29+ bolt through forks and sheepie mountain moustache bars...txt me a price for some bendy ti post tat and I'll save you the embarrassing situations of having such shite in the spares box 😀
Am getting proper SS envy here. Had a Salsa Cromoto sitting in the house waiting for when i get round to attacking my bike and stripping the gears off it. Could be very soon.
What is that yellow bike curiousyellow?
Purchased my wheels (mavic xc717) and new brakes for the ss build tonight. Can't bloody wait to get her built up and in here.
All being built onto my shed dwelling scandal so the bits excluding the frame and bits in the shed already will be about £200. Delighted 8)

An On One Whippet, as seen [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/on-one-whippet-owners ]here[/url]. Like an Inbred, but plastic!
