New to singlespeed...mtndog

I have wanted to get a 29" singlespeed. Now that christmas is over and tax refunds are around the corner I've decided to get one. I found a spot at e-bay. Any thoughts as to if this is a good deal?

It says it comes with a 30 and a 32 and also a 19 and a 21 freewheel. Is this enough of a range? I live in the rockies so there will be some climbing.

Any thoughts would be great. Thanks.
I would buy it!donkey

It looks like a great deal.
Also, It seems like you will be able to find a gear that you like with those rings and cogs. I use a 34-20, and it is working out pretty well. If you go with 32-19, that will be a tiny bit easier than my 34-20. Good luck, I hope you win!
great, thanks.mtndog

price for what you get. clearly at 800, that's a good deal. That's not a buy it now, that's a bid and hope you get lucky. If it goes much over 1200 or so, i'd think 2x and hard.
I'd get it...martini

Looks to be worth the price he's asking initally. I wouldn't go too high on it though. I'm a sheapskate though....It's a good looking bike to boot.
