anyone have any strong feelings one way or another in relation to EBB's chime in whenever
If you're using rim brakes then a BB30 > EBB will give you a quick fix way of adjusting the chain tension without having to readjust your brakes. But I guess adjusting chain tension from the BB is always a bit trickier, plus if you're using a BB30/similar shell, then doesn't it work like an expander, giving it the potential to work loose? Also can you do it with the cranks on?
Bc of those questions and Bc you're after discs, paragon-style rocker dropouts make more sense to me generally, but even more so if you're making a choice from scratch.... Rather than say SS'ing a BB30 CX frame.

have had emails back from Burls and Lynskey
lynskey say that to get a frame similar to the Day One with sliding dropouts, based on this one
https://www.lynskeyperformance.com/store/2015-lynskey-urbanskey-titanium-commuter-bike.html
is a custom job so price is approx £2899 and I can add in as many bells as whistles as I want.
or I suppose I could just get the one above and shove in an EBB, anyone have any strong feelings one way or another in relation to EBB's chime in whenever)
Burls you'll be unsurprised to know can do it for less than half that, approx £1300, and Triton haven't got back to me...
