I am currently building up a Surly Big Dummy frameset for around town light hauling in anticipation of giving up our second car. Not intending on huge loads and the area I'll be riding is definitely flat. After giving it some thought, I'm considering going single speed with the build. I would probably gear it to a little more spin than my current single speed.

Anyone with experience riding a single speed cargo bike that you would be willing to share thoughts or anyone just wanting to comment would be greatly appreciated.
