Single speed heaven!

Hi Guys,

I have had my Genesis SS for a few months now and still very much loving it. I am loving it so much in fact, that I have ungraded rather a lot of it. Finishing kit, brakes, cranks and BB and carbon forks. Even if SS isn't your bag, you have to admit it looks rather nice 8)

The fork looks like a towel rack :P

Love it

nice bike, i run my park/street bike singlespeed, and i do love the simplicity of it and it's a lot of fun, wouldn't mind a go at XC riding on singlespeed too.

needs some gears and 2 portions of suspension but apart from that its very beautiful looking

Asthetically I prefer the original forks, is there realy much difference in ride/performance between them and the new carbon ones?

ok i normoally hate rigid and single speed bikes. but you may have just converted me to liking them sortof. (converted someone who rides a full sus bike with 9.1" of bounce on the rear and 8" on the front is good going.) i like the look of it. is it light. bet it is simple to mantain....

I have only just fitted the towel rail, I mean carbon forks so have yet to really test them out. I really bought them for their weight, or lack of it, more than anything. The bike currently weights 23lbs. I was hoping to get it lighter than that, but I don't plan on spending any more on it, so that will have to do.

hmm yeah that is light, though if i did a similar build (which i am thinking about), i'd want a suspension fork, rebas or something
