That's great - one of the women interviewed I recognise - she was at the Real Ale Wobble in Wales a for a coupe of years riding singlespeed naturally!

Callum,

Very cool... I didn't realize what was involved in a SS World Championship.
With my finely honed drinking skills and clear ownership of a SS, it appears I'm fully qualified as a contender.
Two big questions:
1. How is your drivetrain set up on the Proflex. I get almost 2" of chain growth on my 856 and it's difficult to manage that much slack.
2. Where's next year's event?

Yeeha,
Will
