Just playing op. It's a pretty cool bike. I'm a flatland guy but I can appreciate just about any bike...unless it's a Walmart huffy

I was thinking about converting my MTB to single speed, would be fun.
That's a nice looking bike though.

Single speeds for nerds, you're trading mechanical effeciency for trendiness

huh i always thought multi geared bikes were nerdy ever since i was a kid
besides its a bmx bike its not meant for extended treks
and about mechanical efficiancy a single speed is much more mechanically simple and less likely to fail than a multi geared bike equipped with derailers and other gear changing components

Never had trouble with gears which couldnt be snapped into place in half a minute, they're phenomenally reliable
The gears make climbing steep hills much, much more effecient, you can tailor the bike to whatever elevation up or down
There's no reason to forgo that except trendiness, which is the definition of nerdiness, being overly concerned with people's opinions to the point of walking around in high heels and testicle squeezing tights, gotta look cool and nonchalant so no one sees the insecurity.

maybe if you built your quads up you wouldnt be so concerned about gears and hills
the pk ripper has been around for almost 40 years so as far as trendy thats a pretty long trend
geared bikes are not "phenomelly reliable" and the minute and a half youd be off your bike "snapping gears" into place id still be riding
and for the second time these bikes arent meant for tackling steep hills and long commutes like a geared road bike would be
its a bmx bike not a bike youd wanna take the tour de france on 
geared bikes are for weenies

these bikes have quality parts and built to function
redline cranks/sprocket,sealed mohawk hubs,alloy floval frame,full cromo forks,the most gorgeous handlebars in biking IMO,euro bottom bracket,double wall rims
you can defibatly get rad on this bike w/o worrying about snapping the bike in half
