are you planning SS/Fixed on this frame? as I am not sure the dropouts are the right fitment for it? Lovely looking frame mind you! What's it made of?

This is going to be Single speed could be fixed if i wanted, that's the point of the Wheel Mfg. EBB. Adjustable chain length with vertical dropouts. If I went fixed I would not use Q/R Skewer but one of the bolt through security type. It is unlikely that I will ever go fixed as the rear dropouts are 135 OLN and have a disc brake. Frame, fork, post, stem. and bars are all carbon. Brakes are TRP Hylex front hub SP dynamo, rear hub Hope , Sapin D-Light spokes and rims Stans no tube Grail. Front light Son Edelux and rear the new Son seat post mount light, which is a work of art.
All cable's and wiring internal.

That show's my knowledge! haha Very nice! I look forward to seeing it built! Looks like a lot of fun to be had making it. I remember being told about the Eccentric bottom bracket that also is used on tandems!

Lovely project! I bought a problem solvers eccentric for stock but could only source the Wheels one from USA so left it for now. Don't have a BB30 frame anyway at the moment.

I got the EBB direct from wheel mfg. Great people to deal with very helpful and a good exchange rate at the moment. Mine is PF30 but they do a BB30 too.

How about the frame? Can I ask where you sourced it? PF30 frames are still quite rare.

My simple SS based on the One One carbon whippet. I thought it would be a perfect low-maintenance option for bad weather (and it is) but I actually ride, and abuse, this more that the others.

I got it direct from ICAN Bikes in China dealt with a lovely helpful girl Linda Thong and they are based in Long Dong. Made me smile. To be honest i can not fault the price,service and quality, it is so good my LBC owner is thinking of getting one for himself.

that looks great stevevw, i was looking at ac059 frames myself (only with bsa bb), seem like a very well thought out frame. is pf30 choice because of eccentric bottom bracket?

 

[stevevw]

@zigzag Yes PF30 just so I can have a lot of choice with drive train options. First I will be going single speed, which is for commuting. Then I could go Alfine di2 and finally could go back to derailleur.
