Folding Single Speed
Hi, I was wondering what would be the best folding frame to convert into a single speed.
Would the Downtube 8HN work?

Thanks.

Bikes: not as many but still too many
Why not just get a Dahon boardwalk from camping world and a spare bmx wheel ?Get a fixed cog and red loctite coat the threads on the cog and the bmx wheel .Screw them together wait 3 or 4 days for it to dry.Ride it slowly at first to test it .Then enjoy.
