As usual I am thinking about a new SS build. I am thinking about buying a Trek Stache carbon frame and building it as a non-plus 29er. I am thinking only 2.35" tries on a 30mm rim.
Has anyone tried the frame as a dedicated single speed? If so what is the good, bad, and ugly? How does it ride? Build weights with specs and pics?
Also what is the general consensus on the strangle hold dropout system? Does it hold well, or slip? Is it easy to keep the wheel aligned? How does it handle being ridden hard in very rough terrain? Any other thoughts...
Thanks in advance!
