Finally bothered to take some fotos of my p-ride:
A bit on the low end of the scale, but thats what you gotta put up with being a poor broke uni student whos saving for a new camera, not a new bike:p

Specs:
04 sasquatch frame
04 DJ3's, replaced 20mm lowers (old ones cracked)
Hfx9s front/rear
Shimano Hone cranks
Sun MTX rims, sapim race spokes
Tuffneck SS rear, dabomb HS front
Highrollers; single ply to bring the weight down
oh and some really random pedals, sealed bearings tho, so work a treat.

soon to come are a pair of 66RC2X up front

singlespeed freeride hardtails, the new shit yo!

[EDIT: almost forgot the weight! she comes in at a sweet 14.8 KG:D not too bad considering it started at well over 16]

How you finding singlepeed for fr/dh?


for freeriding/trail its fantastic, no dropped chain, no derailer to get caught on trees and branches, and the ratio works well pedaling in to drops or gaps. its actually a fair advantage because you dont need to concentrate on what the right gear is, just send it;)

for DH, however, it leaves a bit to be desired.
