It took a lot of work to make this happen. The freewheel needed spacing out by flipping the axle. The disc brake then also needed spacing out with some longer bolts and washers.

The crankset is clearly off a road bike and needs changing to something more suitable. The chainring is way too big, 48t is massive for a MTB. The orange grips are just 🤢 and need changing to match the colour scheme. And finally the fork is rubbish and probably could do with an upgrade.
Those are all things that would make it no longer a parts bin bike, these are parts I had available and so this is what I’ve used for now.

Anyway it’s my first taste of single speed MTB and it’s very fun 😊
