I feel like it’s going to be more useful to me with gears. It is, and shall remain, my only mountain bike.
Shorter stem - yes. I’ve actually realised that it’s a larger frame than I first thought: it’s an 18” and at 5’8” I think its only just rideable for me - looks like 16” would be better. Bit annoying.

Much love for single speed. But not with that tensioner.
Although I guess it depends on the terrain. Since leaving London I've ridden nothing that doesn't have gears.

Nice, will enjoy watching this evolve as mine sits, unloved, under my desk at work. No love for single-speed in here? You might find people suggesting a shorter stem too, though I have no idea about mtbs
