I don't dig having to use a tensioner. But it still a nice looking bike.

Looks really nice. Agreed though, id put a front brake and maybe a few cogs in the rear.

Is it a purpose built single speed? If so, I don't quite get the chain tensioner. Rear facing dropouts would have been a better choice. Still, it looks like a fun bike.

Hoenstly, after building my steelhead into a "Urban" bike, I realized how gay it is to do that on a mountian bike.

I wouldn't mind having the 140, but I still think if I had a bike just build for doing DJ's, I would only have around 100 or 120.
