In general, I am thinking a lot of purchasing a Bianchi SASS
for riding in parks and bike trails in excess of 5 miles for
fitness. I am having second thoughts because I am uncertain
whether or not I can carry stuff on it like water, tire
patch kit, pump, food, cell phone, tools, etc... I'm not
talking frivilous stuff here - basically necessities that
any beginners faq would recommend bringing along.
So it got me thinking - how difficult would it be to take a
Trek 520 or Breezer or any other touring bike and make it a
single speed? This to me would be the best of both worlds. I
have ton a ton of research but am still a newb. I've looked
at custom bicycle solutions but their seems to be a 3:1
ratio of single speed mountain bikes to street bikes - and
nothing for touring. And that's what I need for plus a
slightly meatier tire.
The commute/touring bicycle would likely be more comfortable
on the long haul.
Any ideas or help would be appreciated!
