I am looking for a new hardtail single speed, in steel.
I love the cotic soul but would like sliding dropouts

I also like fat chain and seat stays from an aesthetic point of view.
Cheers

You won't find a Pace RC127 anywhere, there is a prototype, and that's it. Went to the magazines for a test, but hasn't gone production yet 🙁
Consider a Surly 1x1 and put Dirt Wizard tyres on it to get 650b size wheels.
You won't regret it (but not sliding dropouts).

Itas a term used to describe software like games that are bigged up but dont actually exist and will never come out.. I didnt know what the bike version of that would be so I subbed with vapour ware.
