Dude! It’s just a king SS hub and a set of Saint (older) cranks in a normal Shimano bb. I just played with gears and chain length until I found the sweet spot. Not 100 percent sure anymore, it’s all sold, but I think it was a 36 x 16 or 18t rear cog. Single speed like this is simple. Those were 2.7 minions, on 26 inch dh wheels: clears fine! Good luck and don’t be afraid to buy a few rear cogs to try and some odd sized chainrings too. I was running a half link bmx chain to make this one tighter, but a good 10 speed chain can get pretty close to perfect! Cheers!!
any chance you could give me a breakdown of the exact bottom bracket and cranks etc that you are rocking including measurements? assuming that I have an empty bb frame with nothing on it.
currently have an old profile racing 3 piece, but it is creaking and worn and everything is seized on it. going to have to use a grinder to get it all off, but I want to start fresh and im kind of lost, and don't want to have to find a bike shop.
I would love to buy a set of parts that I know will fit based on someone else already using the setup.
I have the same evil with 24 inch x 2.5 hookworms tires, so I need a pedal and chain setup that will clear, just like yours
