Hiya, I'm going to buy this bike... http://www.winstanleysbikes.co.uk/product/13778/DiamondBack_Assault_Bike_2008 but I want to know if it is possible to remove one of the chain rings and just have one chain ring up front and I recon I will need a chain guide?
also could you estimate the costs, whether I will need to buy a new chainset?
Thanks

yes. yes. ask the seller if they will do it for you."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Depends if the granny is bolted or riveted, but what difference does it make? Just don't use it, no need for a new chainset.
Chainguide look at Superstar, £20 odd.I don't do smileys.
