Here's my Surly 1x1 singlespeed. It's kind of a wonky buildup right now, but that's because I picked it up on a trade. It's my first XC mountain bike in awhile, but it's not built as such. Rides like an 80s BMX cruiser with 26" wheels.

Life always works it self out in the end.
Be like me, ride your bike.
That looks pretty rad, are you putting on a suspension fork? Or keeping it rigid?

u can ignore this comment…
simplicity at it's finest
wow, M&M, you're a fucking dick!
don't be so politically correct, this is stacy kohut, not fucking rick hansen your talkin too……..
Id say find a taller rigid fork and ditch the stack, thats a mighty steep head angle.
Longer stem.
bleh, im sure u have plans.
Surly's are sweet! Nice bike.
This is your birthday pony.

Plans are in the works. I'm getting some off-road drop bars by On-One, and I need to run the bars near saddle height, so I'm keeping the steerer long and getting a higher, longer stem.

Awesome SS. Good city bike/ commuter id imagine. Not too hard on the eyes either. Does the chain have a tight spot at all ?
I like it but even for XC I'd rather have at least a front disc brake. This is the Wet Coast, we have 2 seasons: winter and July. Chances are your rims are gonna get wet while riding and v-brakes don't work so good when this happens. I'd also get a taller fork like that other guy said, it looks really sketchy-steep right now. Longer stem too, unless you have short arms.

I'm happy to get outside and enjoy nature while I can, but I fear for the future of humanity
I don't live in BC, so I'm okay with rim brakes. And the bar setup is pretty temporary. I'm getting On-One Midge bars:
When I get them, I'm getting a much higher and longer stem because off-road drops need to be run around saddle height.
freakonaleash: There's no loose/tight spots. The chain tension is spot on.
