	i guess its still a single speed the way that it's still considered a single speed if you switch one cog for another there sill wouldnt be a derailler (sp?)

Or are you just trying it out of curiosity? i really have no idea and cant comment on the regulars. all i know is to paddle faster when you hear the banjo music curiosity and laziness i guess? my 32/14 setup is harder than the 32/22 at some trails so i want to go back and forth with less effort
