Show us your SS mtb

Late to the party as usual.
Surly 1×1 running 36×15. Not much of a looker maybe but probably gets more use than all my other bikes put together.
Reserved for mud plugging duties so used pretty much exclusively from October to May.

That a Rooster, Andy?

@kazafaza – That Longitude looks a lot of fun.
Is that a 19”?
Will the rear take a proper 3” tyre?

I’ve had a chronicle on a dually in the back of mine since I got it. Did the puffer on it ss last year. A bit of bike packing on it with 1×10. Awesome bike you can do a bit of everything other than enduro hooning with

Nice to see the ss love is kicking 🙂

My first taste of singlespeed, simply out of curiosity so I converted my HT. Enjoying it so far, but 32/18 is hard work on the short sharp hills around here.

Mine’s been laid up over the summer, been doing a lot more road and gravel-cross type stuff than previous years and then have had the FS out for other rides. But It just needs a chain tension this evening and then I’m planning on a quick spin round swinners tomorrow to see how painful it is…….

Not a great picture, but it’s a Pace RC129, slidey dropout, 853 steel with stainless chainstays.

Truth be told, it’s not my favourite. I had a Swift before, and I’d happily swap this for another in good condition if anyone wanted to.

Oh and finally, while searching for a photo of it, I also found a photo of the pup when she was a pup, and we all like puppy pics so….

theotherjonv, did I buy my Inbred frame off you? Anyway it was somebody off here and it’s still getting used a lot. 32oval x 19 on the South Downs.

Here, with fellow SSer mates on another inbred (on it’s maiden ride) and a Cannondale trail

Not sure – iirc it was collected from my folks house but was going to a commuter / hack bike?

Was yours I’m sure now. Anyway 5000+km and just off out again now…

So far all my riding buddies who’ve had a go on mine up a single hill have built or bought their own ss.

That’s a lot of miles/£ – glad it’s seeing proper service!!

during todays ride, was fun still on the racing ralphs 🙂

Last-Christmas-before-retirement present to myself 😛

Not in an entirely rideable state at the minute but my winter project:

Hope to get it built in the next few weeks.

Wheres the go-to place for bearded gurners these days? Been looking around for decent SS kit in the usual place like here and eBay and theres nothing!

Very nice, Davey!

Look up the One Cog group on fb. Ask for bits and/or shark for offers.

Cheers Ned – re-found them on FB earlier and requested access. Beard is prepared…

SS and rigid seem so nicely suited. I’m putting my El Mar back to SS, was on hub gears but haven’t been happy with them

Since you asked

On-one scandal SS with rigid O-O forks..nice and muddy after yesterday’s BM race!

I thought your Scandal snapped, DrP? Or did it creak a bit, then recover once you’d bought the Rootdown?

It did..got it rewelded, rode it for a bit, then picked up another identical frame (well, in green)…the rewelded one is spare (i.e cluttering up the garage!)
