Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

A Dawes Kingpin? They're made by Dahon, I think... It may not be a "one speed" but may have a Sturmey Archer hub sort of like this https://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~hadland/kingpin.html

You naughty cross posting monkey...
