It's not a stripped down mountain bike. It is an off-the-shelf single speed. Single speed mountain bikes have purpose built frames that typically can't be used with a geared setup. It's more like a mountain bike sized BMX bike.

Nice looking bike. I would need gears. When I rode in the city I would drop gears to get up hills and go up gears to try to pass cars on the hills. Single gear would have drove me nuts.
I used to ride 30-45 minutes to get a piece. On your bike I think that would have ended up being close to two hours with that low gear if not 2.5. It was some good stuff but I think I would have looked for a piece closer to home if I owned that. LOL. I have been wanting another mountian bike over the last couple of years. I used to have a lot of fun trail riding. Down hill really put a smile on my face. James

Single speed mountain bike... Hope you own a heating pad. You're gonna need it for your leg muscles for the first few weeks if you haven't ridden in a while

I'm in riding shape still. I do a lot of spinning.

Here's the Rocky Mountain. I finished it up last night. New cables, chain lubed, new tubes, rebuilt road wheels (the spoked ones in the background), new road slicks, new grips. This one is a standard bike, with gears and whatnot, and cost more than 4x as much as the single speed. I built this one myself.

Rocky Mountains are spendy, but very well made. My frame was $1200. That was 11 years ago.
