Every year someone refreshes this thread. You know the rules, singlespeed and fixed gear bikes only.
So, to get things moving, I’m posting my newest bike, which I received just a week ago. It is a Wabi Classic with 650B wheels and tires, which is my first ever singlespeed gravel bike. Normally, I would have purchased a Wabi Thunder to accommodate wider tires, but I’m too short to ride the smallest 49cm Wabi Thunder. Wabi now makes a smaller 45cm Wabi Classic frameset, which fits me properly. Wabi initially purchased Panaracer GravelKing SS+ 650B x 43 tires, and while they fit in the front, there was a clearance problem with the chainstays in the rear, so they found an alternative Teravail Cannonball Durable Casing 650B x 40 for the rear. Also, the brake calipers had to be changed to Tektro R559 long reach, which are also wider to accommodate the fatter tires. The cockpit consists of a Wabi riser handlebar, ESI Fatty’s grips and Dia-Compe Tech99 levers. Pedals are Wellgo SPD. Gearing is 44x18 (63.9 GI). Weight including two Wabi water bottle cages and a taillight is 21.1 lbs. Total cost was $1222.50.
