Sun Singletrack/Surly flip flop hub/Ritchey Tom Slick 26 x 1.4

Bulletproof 165mm & stock bottom bracket

WTB saddle & stock seat post

.99 pedals and Sram chain

44 tooth Rocketring & 14 tooth Dura-Ace cog & stock mtb brake lever controlling a front Avid BB5 disc

Commuter for work...Decided to convert it to fix since the stock cranks/rings were cheap/worn and the bearings in the stock wheels were shot. Jumps off curbs nicely and enough rubber to run through dirt and gravel. Handlebars spin forever thanks to the thru bolt...the freestyler in me :::grin:::

awesome conversion

Awesome bike dude. I have one almost just like it. i got it back in like 2001, right before that dreaded change in the company. mine is yellow/black and i still use it as my cross country bike. I have replaced almost everything on it. any way, i like what you've done with yours. i bet it rides good around town
