I agree with king, it's easy to setup you own and you get the flexibility of any gear combo you want.

Here's a dingle setup I had awhile back... 20T Endless SS cog with a 13T cog from an old road cassette. I ran out of spacers so there's a mix of PVC and Al. Just make sure the cogs are spaced properly for a straight chainline with the chainrings.

My setup worked pretty good for climbing and downhill or flats.

They will not work with your standard mtb cassette hubs. make sure you have the proper hubs.

surly cogs are made so they are not symetrical. this will allow you to use multiple cogs side by side without using a spacer for a dinglespeed setup. this is what i had the last time i was home. i had a 32X20 for the hills and a 36X16 for getting there. just remember, to keep the chainlength about the same, the total number of teeth has to be the same for both ratios. in my case 32+20 =52 and so does 36+16.

i also shaved off part of my axle to create a ghetto ENO so I didn't have to use a tensioner (just a half link).
