This is a highly custom singlespeed bike built for local talent Max. He knows how to ride fast and he can pedal too. Hopefully this will do the trick.

Weight

Frame - 4.07 lbs w/slider hardware and bottle cage bolts.

Bike - 23 lb 12 oz. with next to no fancy light parts other than the carbon post.

Gearing

For now I want Max to try a 2x2 setup. This is a single speed setup that allows a gear change by moving the chain to an alternate gearing latterally.

To start, we will try an offroad gear of 34/19 (148.5") with 94 chain links. Two options for road/traverse gear are 36/17 (175.7", shortest ctc) and 38/14 (225.3", longest ctc).

Fork

Fox Float 140, lowered to 100mm. Damping with Red Line Light oil.

I figure that Max will be running a fairly high pressure in the fork so I wanted to open the damping a little to keep the fork moving.
