3 YEARS?! that is far too long.and so i Promised the missus that this will be my last bike for 3 years.
Man such a good fun rig....Stoked to finally get this together! Big thanks to Ben from singletracks for the hookup. First ride this weekend. Excited.
I have a 14 honzo also and have found the standard seat post slips, have you had any slippage issues with the reverb dropper as I am considering one??
My first singlespeed!
Recently converted my '14 Honzo to singlespeed. Starting off with a 32x21 setup which works well for most of the riding I do. I'll grab a 19th cog once the legs have built up a bit as it is a bit slow going on the flats but I may regret that when the hills arrive!
Mods include
Raceface 32t NW ring
Surly 21t cog
Reverb Dropper
Haven bars
Haven stem
Thats all she needs! brilliant bike im glad I sold the full susser for this I can attack the downs just as hard and its easier to pedal up hill and now that im singlespeed, maintenance is peasy..... Well once I take a link out now the chain has stretched

I would have been there on my HT, but a long weekend at Thredbo has come up instead...Anyone here doing the Rocky Trail Rollercoaster on Sunday? Hard tail category is back again and the tracks are great fun- rough, loose but not overly technical. If you are as couple of hours either way from Newcastle, drop your cash and have a go!
