This was originally a Bamboosero city bike. I had the FSA Metropolis post, bars and stem on it with a Gates belt drive but got bored of the leisurely ride.
Had the Powershift levers lying around so I decided to put them to use. The Yokozuma housing for the brakes was a cheap yet effective upgrade. Cobra cable guides worked out well.
Mavic Speedcity wheels have held up so far.
Not liking the RaceFace Evolve triple crank as a single too much. Might replace it with an actual single speed with a better chain line and tighter Q factor. This one requires three 2.5mm BB spacers.
Not a featherweight at 24.5 lbs but still a fun ride.
