Rigid Specialized singlespeed build done
Here is a completed singlespeed conversion from a mid 90's steel Specialized Rockhopper. Found the bike in bad shape and thought it was worth fixing. Lots of fun, it's going to get a new seat and tires to make it a little better as a city bike. It's hard on the wrists to ride on a trail with any kind of roots but perfect for rough streets.

Frame looks like original paint, there are plenty of dings but bright. The cranks are Suntour X-1 (originals) which was originally a triple mountain set with all the rings taken off and a 32 tooth put on the front. Race Face makes a lot of chainrings, that would probably be the best choice if you want to fine tune the gear.
