Does such a thing exist?

Want to go full disc on the main commute bike so I'm looking for something that is:

Aluminium
Disc mount, chainstay mount preferred.
Rack & Guards
Single Speed.
I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Pearson's Once more unto the breach: edit this is obviously not disc :roll:
    All city nature boy disc; Not sure if this takes a rack and is probably steel.

    Hmmm could take a bit more searching; there must be a SSCX option out there.

    Steel bike, not alu. Had a PX Kaffenback which was chro-mo too, looking for the same in alu basically.

    If you are just going SS and not fixie, you could stick with vertical dropout and convert a geared to SS, giving you as much choice as you like!
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.

    Could you buy the Planet X London Road frameset and vbuild it up single speed somehow?

    - I know nothing of singlespeeds; I like my gears too much!

    Looked at PXLR but like the zesty lime colour which isn't £150 like the silver, looking at £350 with n ew & pre-used parts
