Best/cheapest place to get SS drop outs put on??

LikeClockwork · Jul 28, 2013

Does anyone have any recommendations?? Looking at Argos, Bob Jackson, etc, it's going to be expensive bearing in mind I'll want a respray too...

Or should I just buy a SS specific frame and be done with it?? :facepalm:

You might want your gears back one day?

Just get an On-One Inbred in SS mode, it'll be cheaper than getting track ends fitted to an existing frame.
Alternative get one of these if you dont want a tensioner:

It gives a degree of eccentric bottom bracket in a normal BB shell.

Thanks guys, the On One was the other option I was looking at, as no, I definitely want the 'clean' look so don't want the SS gizmo thingy hanging off the back...

Depending on your gearing and chainstay length, you might be able to run it with no tensioner.

Have a look at Machinehead for ChainLengthCalc, a handy little Java applet.

All the best,

I Use a White Industries ENO eccentric Hub - works really well and you can go Fixed or SS !

I have found Lee Cooper to be cheaper than the average.
