I have a T2. Thing is, I've got into singlespeed now and I'm thinking whether I should change my frame to an On One Macinato!

Approx. Frame Weight (g) 2268
Seatpost Size (mm) 27.2
Seat Clamp Size (mm) 29.8
Font Mech Clamp Size (mm) 29.8
Wheels will fit 700x28c tyres
Mudguard mounts No
Rack Mounts No
Bottle Cage Bosses 2 set
Dropouts Rear Facing
Bottom Bracket shell 68mm, English threaded
£199
Kinesis T2
Lightweight, 7005 double butted tubing
comfortable hourglass seatstays for those long winter rides
stiff chainstays for great response
plenty of clearance for full size mudguards and larger winter tyres [long reach, 47/57mm brakes required]
rack/mudguard mounts

Seatpost: 27.2mm
Front Mech: 31.8mm

There's no issue with me changing the frame, so that's all good.
Reason being to wanting to change frame; I was told chain tensioners are noisy and aren't that good (on another forum) and that a frame with horizontal dropouts would be better.

What do you guys think I should do?
Should I sell the T2 and get an On One Macinato?
Or will my T2 be fine?
Any feedback is appreciated!
Thanks
Here's my frame:
Here's an On One I found fully built!
