No, this isn't just an excuse to post up pics of my SS. I know lot's of us have SS's and I don't think I've seen them all--so let's post them up. Feel free to post pics and build specs.


Here's mine. It's an '07 Fetish Fixation. I went from a Performance brand Access frame that was given to me. I had to run a chain tensioner on that and hated it. I am so glad I went to a frame with horizontal drop-outs. It weighs in at 26.4 lbs, but I'm a big guy at 215, so I'm glad it's burly. I am curently running a 32:20 but am thinking of switching to a 32:18 soon.

Build specs:

Frame: Fetish Cycles Fixation
Fork: Rock Shox Reba Race Dual Air 100mm
Rear cog: Niner, 20t
Bars: Easton EA50
Cranks: Simano LX w/ integrated BB
Headset: Chris King
Brakes: Hayes HFX-9's with Red Dangerboy levers (levers not in picture)
Seatpost: Thomson
Stem: Thomson
Wheels: Mavic 819's on XT hubs
Tires: Maxxis Ignitors, UST, 2.35 front, 2.1 rear

This was my geared HT for a while, but I never rode it so I decided to covert it and join "The Darkside". or maybe the true "Darkside" SS 29ers? (coming soon? 8-[)

Frame: Giant XTC SE2
Fork: RochShox Pyslo XC U-turn
Rims: Mavic 717 with XT Disc Hubs
Brakes: Hayes 9's, rotors: Hayes "V" cut
Drive train: Raceface Prodigy XC 175 crankset, Surly tensioner
Gearing: Race Face 34t, 18 rear
Pedals: Crank bros eggbeaters "C"
Thomson Seat post and Stem, Carbon bars
Weight: 23.62 lbs

Here is my Cove Stiffee that I threw together with spare parts (except the wheels that I borrowed from my Burner) a few weeks ago. I've only ridden it once at the Blackstar newbie ride and enjoyed it a lot. I only have the Gussett conversion with an 18 tooth rear cog so I'd like to get a 20 so I can do some steeper climbs w/o dieing. It weighs in a hair over 25lbs.

Nice. Glad I'm not the only one running a 5"-ish singlespeed!
