I’m looking to sell my hybrid road bike to replace it with a single-speed bike instead. The gears are nice and all, but I find myself hardly ever changing them in the city. And the simplicity of a single-speed would definitely cut down on maintenance (not that I had to really worry about that anyway).
But anyway, my good friend rides single-speed and he seems to love it, so I’d certainly be willing to “switch”.
So…that gives me a perfect reason to post pictures of this beautiful Swobo Del Norte single-speed bike. Of course, it’s expensive because it’s Swobo (listing at $739), but this isn’t too far from what I would like in a bike.
Look at how nice that red chain looks though. I’d like a colored chain on my bicycle.
that red chain is cool but it’ll turn black so fast in the city. i would go single speed too if i could switch now but that’s a lot of money and the bike i have is fine for now. maybe when the 3 yrs free servicing is over i’ll get a single speed. the apt has too many bike things already.
True. But I’m not looking to keep my road bike. I’d still only have one bicycle.
Personally i’d rather just ride a bmx than a geared bike or bigger single speed.
