  • This looks fun

    Quoted for new page, because it's fucking rad and looks perilously close to 'the answer'.
    If one were to build this kind of bike and want

    • ability to use a medium-travel sus fork
    • ability to use a 1x10spd geared and SS drivetrain

    what dropout-type would be ideal? Something sliding?
    What would be a good frameset to start with?

  • An EBB has never sounded like a good idea to me. Adjustable dropouts do though, it just seems like the bike industry is pissing about every other year changing its mind. Tbh that's what confuses me about all these dropout 'standards' at present - in 5 years' time, which will be left standing? There's even talk of bolt-thru rear axles on CX bikes now.
