_ I tried that on mine for a while with an old campy derailler as
a tensioner. Didn't really work all that well due to not being
able to get a decent chainline just by redishing the rear wheel.
IMHO, single speed with a tensioner seems like the worst of
all possible worlds. All the weight branch catching possiblities
of a derailler and none of the gears. My version of that bike
has vertical dropouts.
