Why the Quickbeam? The elegance of simplicity is an entirely different 
experience to ride. The gear's in your legs. Elegant silence. Yet you can 
shift with a wee bit of work when needed and still be single speed.

I am curious. What is the benefit of writing up your bike this way versus the 
usual geared bike. Is if the simplicity? The Quickbeam is beautiful and I like 
reading the ride reports.

I wouldn't make the one link change for fender line. Grin. But you can 
decide for yourself:

Thanks, Jonathan, so do I, but I can't shake the feeling that a little less 
axle movement and a slightly lower gear from a 16/19 would be perfection on my 
hasty ent.

Depending on your terrain, a one tooth difference may not be essential, so 
a 16-18 could get you there. I use my 32/40 16/19 set up for all roads and 
trails, including singletrack on Pikes Peak. If your terrain is less 
extreme, you'll do just fine with a 16-18. Where are you riding?

Thanks, Patrick. I found an old thread where you mentioned that Riv could 
likely order one for me. I thought I'd try here first. I'm glad to hear that 
you give it a ringing endorsement!

Not a chance! I love mine! Have you contacted White Industries or 
Rivendell? They should be able to order it for you. It's part of their 
double/double set, but you should be able to just get the duo 
freewheel. https://www.whiteind.com/double-double
