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.

@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
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….
Kona Unit. No idea on weight, but 32/18 gearing. Currently living in Suffolk for Thetford duties.

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!)
