As Dr S suggested a thread just about frame building I thought i'd start one as I've got questions.
Si, have you heard of offset rear triangle and if so do you reckon you could build one.
I heard of this years ago and thought now thats clever. You build an undished rear wheel and offset the rear triangle toward the drive side, Result very strong rear wheel that can still do deralier gears. its an idea I quite fancy and used to be done by Orbit Cycles for their tourers.
There may be issues with this mind so opinions sought
