New Custom 29er Singlespeed
 

Just got a new singlespeed 29er. Ridden a few fixies in the past but this is the first time of any duration on a singlespeed. The frame's made by Clark Custom Cycles, http://www.clarkcustomcycles.com

Really digin the singlespeed thing. I haven't found any times were I really "need" other gears yet and I've been riding it in the mtns around Salt Lake City.

that bike is hot. I cant wait til I get my s/s 29er.

Wow, that thing is awesome, very cool build. What is up with those kinds of forks? They look like they would have suspension but don't, or do they? I don't really understand the design, maybe just to hold huge tires?

Very nice! Just a tip though, the masses always demand drive side pics.

EDIT the masses are satisfied ... for now. Hominy HOMINY that is a great looking bike!

How tall are you and what is the standover on that?
I'm five-nine/ten and I just can't get used to the height of a 29er.
My friends that are six-two + rip it up on their 29ers.

oh, and what is the name of that color? Is it powdercoat?

that thing looks sweet. is it fillet brazed?

nice build up too. is that a carbon fork?

It's a suspension corrected fork with 80 mm offset.

38mm of offset, not 80mm.

And it rides great. http://dirtragmag.com/print/article....=stuff_reviews

Just looked that up, you learn something everyday. Probably something I should have known, riding mountain bikes for about 5 years, guess I always had suspension forks.

yeah, it's fillet brazed.

As to standover height etc...

Damien Clark, the framebuilder said that essentially the virtual top tube of the bike was at or just under the 29 inch line of the wheels. I'm 5.7 with about a 29.5-30 inch inseam. And I have not problems with anything regarding fit on this frame (Although I guess that's the benefit of custom stuff)

With the front fork, I think it was mentioned but it's an 80 mm suspension corrected fork. The carbon makes it light, and adds a bit of give to a rigid fork. And you could probably put the front tire for a Surly Pugsly in there, it's go not clearance issues whatsoever.

"for the masses"
I'll post a drive side picture later today. Sorry, not up on bike photography etiquette.

With regards to the color. We call it Anti-Freeze green. Need to find some sexier name but oh well.

And yeah, it's a powdercoat...nice and durable...

congrats, looks like a blast. i want to build up a SS mtb next. what do you wear to keep the **** off your back without fenders, though?

Goddammit that is a nice bike.
Eccentric BB?

thats SIC!!!!

Very nice, I can't wait til I get my '06 Monocog 29er (15") finished. Just got done with the wheels (halo freedom disc laced to Real disc front and Surly fixed free).

Yeah, it's got an eccentric. Makes the entire chain tension thing a breeze...

My voodoo has sliding dropouts and they are pretty much a total pain in the ass.

Bad Ass
 

Wow it is so nice to read nice things about my work! I am so happy that I got to deliver that bike @ 24 hours in the old pueblo and got to see it in action. Enjoy the ride and I dig all the photos.

That's ****ing hot! I want a 29er so bad.

I've never met someone on a trail who was worried about getting dirty. it's a pretty awesome feeling coming home covered head to toe in dirt and mud, says you had a good day.

that bike looks fun as hell.

what size tires are you running on those freedom discs? I have a set laced to a Halo Spin Doctor and a Hive Chub Hub, but i'm curious as to what width tire they will handle?

so jealous.
