If you were living around here I would do it for you.... I don't know why you would want to do it though.

thanks for the offer! i know, a single speed MTB is strange but i don't trail ride and i planned on using it as my comfort bike.

the seating position on my track singlespeed is a little uncomfortable no matter how i position the seat and crank/hub ratio is a little too aggressive. when i ride with the wifey she falls waaaaaaaaaaayy behind when we bike over to the grocery store lol
