Your cog is slipping.
Actually, I think the decals come with them but they're not applied.

Single speed with a rear brake only is a horrible idea dude. Throw a front brake on there as well

xB_Nutt: The top tube protector is the ultimate irony...
Check this video:
https://vimeo.com/2781965
In the video the bike has a super steep rise stem and riser bars and when he spins it it still comes close to hitting.
The green line is where silsteve's stem would point, as the bars come around 90 degrees they will approach the top tube if not hit it directly.
The assumption that risers/positive rise stem/bullhorns/etc. can't hit a top tube is as dumb as it is common. It would make sense only if bikes had completely vertical head tubes.

Must say, much lighter than my Mtb, mind you, may be slightly off as I only have an Enduro 2
Haha, yeah that was as soon as i had converted the hub.
