Single speed commuter with mudguards & panniers

onandon · 2011-11-17T13:13:31+00:00

Can anyone recommend a good single speed frame which I could run with mudguards and a light weight rack. Ideally just the frameset. I can see a Ridgeback Solo reviewed here but I can't seem to buy one. I keep looking at touring/audax frames but can't find one I can run as ss. I'm fed up with getting soaked, I know, I'm soft!!!!

Bear in mind that the Pompetamine has rear facing track ends – a pain in the bum if you want proper mudguards.

The Singular Peregrine (iirc) has an eccentric BB, a much better solution.

On One Pompetamine frame?

Not light, but cheapish and SS-able (but you’ll need a 135mm spaced wheel and disc brakes).

Pompino would probably work too if you prefer cantis (in particular the newest version has more room, so should fit reasonable sized tyres and guards).
