    don't get the shimano freewheel its crap!

    Why's that? What should I get then? Planet X / On-One only sell Shimano bmx freewheels!

    44-17 for me, anything about 70 gear inches is good for road riding.

    I'm not used to the ss gearing yet! Does this allow decent enough speed but still able to climb the odd hill or two encountered on commutes etc?

    Hi all - newbie to lfgss so many apologies if all this has been done before!
    I'm about to purchase a Pompino and was wondering what gear ratio you all use please? I'm new to the world of singlespeeds so want something I can climb on easily enough but wont spin out at 15-20mph!
    I want to ride as SS rather than a fixie and On-one don't supply a freewheel - is there any particular make I should be buying please?
    The frame is currently on offer at £100 - is that a steal and build it myself or am I getting a great bike already built (bar the freewheel) at £500???
    Many thanks for any help and replies in advance!
