the shock on my 2014 Five was leaking, so the obvious solution is to buy a new (to me) bike.

Problem is, ive got a bike of "old standard" non boost bits, with a leaky shock.

I think im going to splot it to:

a) get more cash,

b) easier to post

c) be able to keep some specific bits.

 

Its got a lovely 150mm Pike on. Are there any Hardtail frames that are: Single speed compatible (Slots, or EBB) and will take a 150mm fork?

Pipedream Moxie. Although based on the other thread, ordering one might be a bit laborious. Saying that, there's always secondhand ones popping up in eBay and the like.

Rather than look for a ss-able frame you could run an external eccentric BB and then the world's your oyster when it comes to singlespeeding frames. I've got a First Components BSA version on my all-road singlespeed and it works great, they also do a T47 version.
