View Full Version : Custom Singlespeeds here!!!!!
singlespeedy 12-30-2003, 09:28 PM Heres a shot of my Teesdale singlespeed Tom built for me last spring,(2003). What can I say, Tom builds a sick,(awsome) ride. By far the best feeling bike I have ever ridden. It is made from 100% 853 and sports a ecc bottom bracket. I had Tom add a rear derailure hanger in case I get too old and have to add a few more gears. But as for now, one is all I need.

Corky3 12-31-2003, 07:19 AM The current ride..... another on the way!
Diesel 12-31-2003, 07:34 AM Let's try that again....
Diesel 12-31-2003, 07:37 AM By far the best SS I have ever ridden. The color is hard to see in the photo but it isa minty green called wasabi.
namaSSte 01-02-2004, 08:14 AM Singlespeedy, that Teesdale is awesome! Thanks for posting the pic!
singlespeedy 01-02-2004, 06:47 PM Thanks, I really enjoy Toms work.
erol/frost 01-04-2004, 10:49 AM Agreed. All of them are nice. The Teesdale, the Sycip, the IF... Wonderful bikes.

loonyOne 01-06-2004, 04:46 PM Padre, That gold chain is AWESOME!! What kind is it??
donkekus 01-06-2004, 05:10 PM SRAM PC7X most likely.
Padre 01-06-2004, 05:18 PM Padre, That gold chain is AWESOME!! What kind is it??
That next poster is correct. It is a Sram PC-7X. It's heavy, but I don't break 'em. Plus, you got that cool little quick release on it.

singlespeedy 01-06-2004, 06:17 PM Nice ride Freddy. Are you the same Fast Freddy as the ebay fast freddy? :confused:
singlespeedy 01-06-2004, 06:22 PM That is a very nice tag Hugh. How about letting us see the rest. :D
Fast Freddy 01-06-2004, 08:09 PM I'm Fast_Freddy_4 on Ebay....
That is a very nice tag Hugh. How about letting us see the rest. :D
Here it is.. Full rigid.. I also have another fork and caliper set up for it (FoxRLT80) but all it seems to do is collect dust!!! I guess I'm stupid like that!!!

SlowSSer 01-07-2004, 01:29 PM Hugh- that pace still standing up to the abuse that you throw at it?
SS Jerry 01-07-2004, 02:32 PM Hugh,
Does your Seven have an "EBB"? If yes, would you go back to horizontal drops?
Just curious before I pull the trigger....

Just a note Jerry, speaking for Hugh, from what I've heard..he's very happy w/ his EBB set up and the whole build.

Hey Jerry
I have a Jericho and a Seven both of them have EBBs. I love them. No problems. I don't understand why people still build new single speeds without them. They are like that oven commercial>>> Set it and forget it<<< If you plan on running Discs its sweet. You dont have to mess with gettining the wheel straight. I have not found any drawbacks..

Man I hammer that thing! no problems!!! When are we gonna go ride??
HUGH

singlespeedy 01-07-2004, 07:47 PM I totaly agree. Ecc bb is the ****. It stays put unlike those damn horizontial drop out. I don't miss having to retension my chain all the time or having to use those stupid tug-nuts. Plus if you go disc its by far the best route.
1 Speed 01-07-2004, 08:30 PM This is a shot of my Curtlo 29'er after one of the first rides. It's a sweet bike and I love riding it. Honestly though, I'm still dialing it in a bit. The Karate Monkey fork's a bit too harsh for this ol' boy.

Bunch of great looking rides on here.

SS Jerry 01-07-2004, 09:30 PM Thanks,
That's just what I wanted to hear.

its been 2+ weeks, and it started with the stomach flu to now having a wicked cold/sinus infection. lucky me.
singlespeedy 01-08-2004, 06:47 PM Hey 1 Speed, Nice ride. I really dig the colors you got going. My next builder-upper is going to be all old school BMX looking with all the cool anadized components. That stuff is hard to come by. Thanks for posting your 29'er.

mike@one-speed.com 01-22-2004, 09:56 AM This was the first production EBB SS frame that Seven produced. For my SS 'cross bike, although I'm not using discs, I had Seven use a EBB because it had proven itself to me after 2-yrs of flawlessness.

I've been racing on this bike for nearly 4 yrs.
Since this pic was taken last summer, many parts have changed. First, I'm not longer riding rigid...now using a SID World Cup, but have a new '04 Fox F80X waiting in it's box for spring.
Hope Mini brakes are gone in favor of Formula B4 SLs. From Oct to Jan, I tried a set of XTR/XTs, but these went back to Shimano Canada for warranty due to sticky pistons.
Replaced the RF LPs with a set of FSA Carbon Pros....very nice, stiff, etc.!
Ditched the EggBeaters in favor of my ultra-reliable 959s...man, I love these pedals!
timbercomp 02-26-2004, 08:30 PM Shitty picture...YES, shitty bike? NO
Custom Fillet Brazed Sycip with EBB. I love this bike. Sycip is currently making a segmented fork and bullmoose bars for it and then I will be very happy indeed.
Zenfrog 03-03-2004, 03:17 PM I love this thread!
I am shopping for a Custom frame. I am thinking about Soulcraft and Kish. Any feedback on why I would go for one or the other?
Padre 03-03-2004, 03:34 PM My Vulture still in it's virgin state.
Here's my Vulture without that silly rigid fork...
