Sliders, not JUST for single speeding.
Wish more companies could figure it out. But in my experience some bike designers - charging just as much for overseas steel frames as SCB charges for the Chameleon - can’t grasp it.
Yes, dedicated \#1FG riders, and even \#1FG curious riders, and even “I might try it one time for kicks” \#1FG is a small, small market but the ability for riders to adapt their chainstay lengths to their preference and try different things is awesome.
And I know they add monies but Kona is selling $700 CAD frames with great sliders in aluminum and steel. So if in doubt use theirs.
