Can't really tell from the pics but I'd guess either an eccentric hub or an EBB (eccentric Bottom Bracket). I also didn't realise at first that it has a funky suspension system built into the rear stays - the DKS system.

Thought singlespeeding was meant to be uncomplicated and more about beer drinkingOriginally Posted by fishbulb
I blame the Yanks.
Just saw this thread for the first time, thought I would say hello! I built my singlespeed a few years ago and it's still going strong. Don't think I'd go back to geared MTB now... also have a fixed gear road bike but that's still quite scary at the moment!

Just 2 weeks 'till messy fun in the forest!!
I'm taking my teenage nephew - NO, not like THAT.
We need to cheer people on so, who's going to race???
Pleeeaase let me know cos the little monster thinks SS is for bearded freaks who like Morris Dancing and steel frames. He obviously only wants to see downhill action and street freestyle (and totally inappropriate girls but that goes without saying).
Help.

Looks like I've got a beard but it's just mud. I don't know if there's going to be proper racing or whether it'll just be people showing how 'niche' they are. I'm taking my lad with me to lead me back to the tent from the bar...
PS Nowt wrong with steel frames. I'll pass on the Morris Dancing!
We'll see you there.
Will the video of that be on Youtube mate?
I wouldn't put it past him! Still, these days he will probably be joining me in sinking a few so the camera might be a bit wobbly...
Like the look of this, any thoughts/opinions?
