yeah single speed all the way, i was geared until xmas, and i bought a surley sprocket, gusset bachelor, hope spacers and try-all grips and it's the best thing i've bought for my bike my bike is soo quiet now as well, no chain slapping my frame and everthing is tucked out of the way which gives you the confidence to try bigger side-hops without thinking your going to destroy your mech if you don't make it. O just thort i'd say i use 22-18 and its just perfect for me but maybe when i get a bit better i'll move to 22-16 for that bit extra power when gapping.
