Rigid Beater Single Speed

[Grassi21]

It is still a beater. But it has been fun to ride. Because I am not confident with my wrenching I had the LBS look over my work. I don't think I would rebuild this beast again. But it does have me thinking of a nicely put together SS down the line.

Thats a big investment to make for something you never use. Why don't you get a ride or two in and then think about upgrades:grin:
