I could not tell if that rigid rig of yours had gears or not?<br /><br />I was without a single bike for TWO years as I originally sold it to help finance our MTB tandem but I recently purchased a cheap frame and put together a fully rigid single speed bike and it's been a blast.

Two weeks ago I almost stuffed my face into a rock because the front end would not absorb any impact. :( Still, tons of fun.Martin Criminalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155910893019949463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745736219819810194.post-44450783951970768032010-09-23T08:54:03.283+01:002010-09-23T08:54:03.283+01:00My name was down to ride this but unfortunately i&...My name was down to ride this but unfortunately i'm still not fit enough to ride. - Gutted!<br /><br />I rode the North-face trail on a rigid 29er earlier in the year. I'd hate to think I was racing it on one! Some of those paths were just too rough for me to carry any speed.Red Bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10286933264663629749noreply@blogger.com
