I have a Merida cyclocross 4 from around 2014/15 that I want to convert to single speed.
It has cable disc brakes that are rubbish and need sorting out, but the frames good enough
Currently runs 10 speed 105 and a 36/42 upfront. The plan would be to change it to a single speed for commuting (not CX racing)
What do I need in terms of parts?
Single speed chain ring and single speed chain bolts
Single speed free hub with spacers.
1/8” chain ?
Chain tensioner ?
Any help with good stuff to get for this on a budget would be great
