Ryanpmb Posted May 28, 2015 Share So 3" tire in the front and normal at rear? I also like that idea. But Came across this in my "krampus research." They did basically that in pic #4 with the BERGAMONT Revox http://twentynineinches.com/2012/10/29/surly-krampus-final-review/ They did not like it to much . . . but that is just them and it was a light carbon hardtail. You might have a totally different setup. Just thought I'll share the info. I hope it helps. That oke is an embarrassment in his hipster wannabe clown outfit. FML. Fail. As an aside a Fox fork fits the Knard. Just. But it does. J∆kk∆ls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J∆kk∆ls Posted May 28, 2015 Share Thanks.I looked at the Gates Carbon belt . . .but man . . I'll be damned it I cut a joint in the rear triangle, or let anybody do it . .. I am just not liberal (aka "skytbang" ) enough to do that.Yeah better not. it would be better to just use a dedicated frame intended for belt drive.

SimpleDom Posted May 29, 2015 Share My XL single speed comes in at 12.5kg. That's with a dropper, suspension fork, and maxxis ardents front and back. Sure I could shave some weight, but I love riding it just so.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant to top it off the lightest bike i own at 9KG'sAwesome. I saw a p29'er at modders on Saturday such a sick thing. And with that said, young small fry retrieved the n+1 dream list and began to weep as he added yet another line.

DiDadda Posted June 3, 2015 Share Does anyone here know where I can get a good single speed coaster hub here in S.A? You know - the old back pedal brake type. Want to build up a a single speed bike but this will be shopping item no.1. If I cannot find a descent one, I won't carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
