I got this frame off of eBay from Sacramento at the end of the summer. The goal was to build a simple bike from the frame up. I thought single-speed would be a good place to start. The practically vertical dropouts added the extra challenge of chain tension. My choice of solution? Find the magic gear >:) took awhile but it has been found. It’s a really fun commuter. Super light and good conversation starter
