Look Mum No Gears!

Picked up my new Singular Swift yesterday.

Was originally supposed to have an Alfine hub but delays in delivery broke my patience and I had it built up as a single speed.

Went out for a short ride to test the setup this afternoon. A lovely ride, fast responsive and stable; the first bike I've had in 40 years that I've been able to ride 'no-handed'.


Initially I had doubts about the compatibility of single speed and my knees off road but I'm beginning to reconsider the idea of gears at all!
