Fun things to do with a singlespeed
If you've just bought a new Love/Hate from Dialled Bikes, you can:
1. Use the headset press that Ratboy stole from his last workplace before the army, to put the headset in
2. Use an adjustable wrench to beat the bottom race down the steerer tube
3. Use a grinder to get the steerer to just the right length, without any nasty burrs left over to cut your hands on, and instead of having a jagged edge where the hacksaw fell to bits half way through and stabbed you in the hand
4. Cover your hands with black gunk from the 'nearly new' 2 piece cranks you bought, where the vendor didn't quite understand about cleaning things before flogging them on eBay. And then start swearing.
5. Argue with the neighbours because they don't think the first 4 items are entirely appropriate behaviour at 11pm on a Sunday night. F**k em. They chose to live in a flat next door to you, didn't they?

Do I detect a certain irony in the lack of your mention of riding the damn thing?
Can I borrow your 222 so the Batterer can teach me to jump? Possibly before he teaches me to ski.
