Interesting idea with the double chainring and tensioner.
Is there enough chain length (plus movement of the tensioner) to allow you to use both chainrings? Big ring for the flat, stop and manually flip onto the smaller chainring for hills?
I know this is not technically then single speed but its a groovy idea :-)

Touch it up and ride it
Last two days have seen 50 miles done on my Aende single speed with a 52 x 16 set up the hills we have can be hard but hey.
Have swapped wheels and calipers over from original build and enjoying it.

Graham Weigh ebay frame(£22!),probably Reynolds 531 and of 80's vintage(again probably);just rubbed down and rattle canned.
Done up with some bits I had lying around with the old rear Mavic re-built on to a flip-flop hub and currently running a 42/16 freewheel set-up at the moment.
Oh and weighs in at just under 10kgs.

Build thread is in the calssic and vintage section.
