Finally got my own single speed bike ;D I remember listing this frame in my "single speed parts wishlist" thread early last year. At last, the previous owner decided to let me have it already (thanks mr. donor) hehehe. So far, after a couple of urban rides, I'm loving it. Still have to try it on the trails though. Thanks to my personal mechanic, Mat, for building it up for me in time for the TOF yesterday. Didn't know riding without gears can be so much fun

Enjoy it and the pain and suffering will be oh so nice

Pedro, the hubs are just regular hubs, not eccentric, we just got lucky with the chain tension

according to Mat, if your chainstays are 16.75" long center to center, as airborne frames are, they are perfect for 32 x 18 ratio, and probably nothing else he he. In fact we were trying to set it up as a 32 x 16, but the tension was off.

Bernie, don't worry, I won't be neglecting my NRS (i hope ;D). It's my winning bike, remember

Go ahead and build your own single speed and join the cult!

Pete, for reasons of my own, I really love the "old school" tinker juarez saddle

Arnel, I wouldn't dare race with this bike and compete against the likes of dandan, mcvarki, agu, jm etc etc.!!!

Thanks jaymz and arci! I hope to ride this bike on the trails very soon
