hi
interested
what is the weight of the frame and fork ?
what is the rear width ?
The 55 is the seattube length C/C ? what is the top tube length ? with the horizontal equivalent ?
do you think it can accomodate an alfine hubbed wheel of 135mm at the rear - the alfine for centerlock disc ?

EDIT, you may confirm but I have found that it should be OK :idea:
but can you confirm how far in cm is the cable stop from the rear wheel axle ?

finally what would shipping to France cost (parceltogo ? etc..)?

thanks

Bruno

Hi there

Sorry for the delay. Frame weight is apparently 5 lbs 3 oz .
It's a standard 4130 frame so not mega light, but built for touring. I was going to use this for a round the world trip but have decided to go with cantilever brakes instead but with carbon rims. Also I'm not personally too keen on the long head tube on these frames.

sizing is measured along the toptube so this frame has an ETT of 54.8 I believe.
Full geometry for every size is here;

The rear spacing is 135mm, but to behonest these frames are not ideal for a Rohloff as the dropouts are vertical. Ideally you want a horizontal sliding dropout or an eccentric bottom bracket to adjust chain tension. You could use a tensioner from the derailleur fixing I guess but it wouldn't be elegant.

I'll get back to you late today with the cable stop issue and the parcel cost.

Thanks
