Okay so my brother has been riding for about a year now. He has a Hardrock that he rides on trail an road. Sometimes he rides through downtown Houston. Monday night I had dropped by and he saw my newly built Kona SS and rigid. http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=107590
After just riding it to the end of the driveway and back, he asked to borrow it. I let him, told him that I am still working on the chain tensioner quirk.
Well last night he called me wanting me to convert his Hardrock to SS, and his buddy wants an SS now. AS for the buddy, he wants a beater bike for riding to the bars, that I am cool with. My brother on the other hand, is still fresh into cycling. But the last time I heard him this stoked, was after he finished surfing out in Cali. Should I try sway him form converting, or convert his bike and let him learn the way of the Single Speed?
