PhilipV Posted April 18, 2020 Share My On One 456 Carbon HardtailThis is my Rooikop Skelmpie.[/url]After listening the the latest Kendall vs Kendall podcast (link below) I was inspired to make the Rooikop Skelmpie a Singlespeed again. Winter is nigh, and by the time we get into the mountains again, this bike (and I) will be itching to get muddy again. This bike as a singlespeed reminds me of why I started riding around the mountains and forests as a laaitie. All the fun. None of the worries. Motivational reminders. And clean cable routing that warm the cockles of my heart. Look carefully and you'll see some emergency gorilla tape wrapped around the fork. https://m.soundcloud.com/jensonusa/kendall-vs-kendall-ep-21-hot-or-not-hardtails-and-single-speeds Me rida my bicycle, Duane_Bosch, Andrew_Smith and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me rida my bicycle Posted April 19, 2020 Share Lockdown budget build.1x11 32 oval and sunrace 11-50t cassette Shimano XT shifter and derailleur but with Sram chain on the sunrace cassette just works better ????Was sceptical about the fork but it really feels good plush and smooth. If I had a compressor I would have fit the onza Ibex skinwall think that would really make her pop.
