Always wondered why people rode singlespeed...figured you singlespeed monkeys were the perfect audience to ask.

For sure! I just came back to the states after five months abroad....hopped on the bike without touching anything(just made sure it would hold together and lubed it up).animal 52 said:I like SS because I can spend more time riding my bike, and less time working on it

PS:You mentioned East Tenn,have I rode with you @ Windrock?
bigkonarider said:----
Yeah, i usually was there last year alot on my Maroon colored BULLET & a Z150 or Monster-T & 24" rear wheel...I drive a Grey Jeep Cherokee..
Got my Bullet setup using a PIKE now & lighter slightly at 40#. I like Windrock a lot--but Bigfoot is more for me, for several reasons!
How bout you dood ?

Awe,he 'tis a true single speedermcl2u2 said:I'm a singlespeeder from WAY back. My tricycle only had one gear as did my Big Wheel. Then they came out with all these fancy multi-geared bikes and I tried a couple, but always came back to the basics. I love SSing and the only difference between my bike now and my tricycle is the tricycle was fixed gear. Heck with that. Oh yeah. It also had 3 wheels.
