I built a single-speed on at full niche (Singular, flared drops, chunky rubber) and use it as a commando commuter on the shilly roads between Bolton & Manchester. I love it, I rarely flat and I’ve not bust a wheel (unlike I did on my winter roadie x2). At weekends it’s top fun for canals & fire road stuff I do with my kidlings.
Love mine and is a close 2nd to the SS El Mariachi I ran for years.
Looks cool (IMO) too.
