Hey,

do you think that the stuff like https://www.squidbikes.com/products/magic-tension-pf30-eccentric-bottom-bracket

Or others of similar type, afaik, problem solvers do one for pf30, wheelsmfg for bb30, trickstuff and phil for bsa, could withstand fixed riding?

I would like to build an allround bike by buying a 2nd hand cx frame with the possibility to ride it fixed, ss and geared later.

Thanks guys

a 2nd hand cx frame

Will you be buying vintage or modern? A lot of steel CX frames from the 80s had forward facing dropouts rather than vertical

I was thinking modern. The ideal participant would be the trek crockett with those funky droputs which will eliminate the need for these spendy bbs. Problem is, they rarely pop up for sale

Ah gotcha. Yeah those look sweet for a versatile do-anything bike

Squid spec it on the "tracklocross" build of their cx frame, so I reckon it should be ok - maybe mail the other mfgs?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
