Had a couple of rides as it is, but still waiting on a few parts to finish it of.
If i put a single cog and spacers on the rear hub will it damage it over time?

Here is my 07 Redline Monocog 26r. When I bought it, it was olive green, rusty and had a bunch of worn out parts. It was in need of a major bicycle make over, and I am happy with the transformation. I took it out on it's maiden voyage last week and was shocked at how well it got around. Going from a full suspension to a full rigid single speed was a big jump for me, but I am happy I did it.

Nothing else is particularly fancy...
I'm thinking of doing something similar. I have a '93 or '94 Diamondback DBR Titanium hardtail with an old Rockshox Mag21 fork. I still have the original steel fork, and I'm thinking of converting this bike to a fully rigid singlespeed.
No, that's how they came. I got them from a shop on eBay but they are made by Carbon Cycles I bought the 42.5cm aluminium ones as the forks they replaced had 80mm of travel and I did not want to upset the frame geometry. They do carbon and forks for 29ers too
