Single speed conversion from shimano 12 speed | halo SuperDrive free hub swap

After having the bike for 4 months and never changing gear I finally took the plunge and went in to covert it to a single speed. I counted the teeth on my rear cog (14T) and ordered the the same size as I know this ratio works. I run a 32T chainring on the front. Once you choose the gear ratio you’ll also need a spacer kit, hg freehub body and a tensioner plus a lock ring to hold it all in place the shimano one from my 12 speed cassette was too small but a 11 speed or hg drive compatible cassette lockring will hold the spacers in place nicely if you are on a budget like me. Some spacer kits will come with a lockring too. I used @endlessbikeco cog and spacers as they come in pink (and in many other awesome colours!) In this video I will also be swapping my shimano microspline freehub to a hg drive on my @Halo Wheels . For the tensioner I went with @Reverse Components as they are the best on the market! (unfortunately not in pink but the black looks mean 😏) Finally I reused an old 11 speed chain
