For sale is my first road bike that I had last year converted to singlespeed. Specs/details listed below. Reason for selling is that I haven't been riding it and I would like to make some room.

When I did the conversion, the original plan was to possibly use a chain tensioner and go with a 42x16. But with teh 42x18, the chain was perfect, and I chose to go that route for aesthetic purposes of not using a tensioner. Hope this helps -
