I've been meaning to build a single speed for a while, mainly because I have about 5 bikes already and none are single speed, but also because I genuinely don't need a geared bike for about 60% of the riding that I do (flat gravel, road and stony tracks). I don't like butchering bikes for parts, and the others I have are pretty much 'as they should be' but as I got this Marin as the frame only, it seemed a good opportunity.
Glad to read this is forging ahead and you’re fapping that [BUY!] button to get it all progressed. It’s exactly what I would do : )
Didn’t realise this was a single speed build (?)
