Is a singlespeed on the road just for those who haven't got the balls to ride fixed?

Yes

Yes, bit scary when doing it, but works well. Single diameter hole, so using a nut instead of a recessed bolt.

I'm getting a single speed through the c2w scheme and to be honest I'm "bobbin' it" at the thought of riding it on the road as I've never ridden fixed at all.

But at least I'll be able to post in this section with a bit of legitimacy.

Looks good to me, the belt drive and rear dropouts look interesting.
