80's criterium conversion help
hello,
so i have an 80's cannondale criterium that i would like to convert to a single speed. and online ive seen these great looking SS on my exact frame. but the bike stores that i have brough my crit to check out, theyve said that i would need a chain tensioner. I was wondering why the SS crits that i have seen dont have tensioners but im being told i need one. thanks for the help.
