Its 165mm, maybe smaller toe clip will do the trick.

Toe clips with a coaster brake?

You do kind of get used to toe overlap on a bike though. I had it quite badly on my commuter I used for 6+ years with few problems

I guess you will find the true reason for previous bottle cage comments when you actually try to put a bottle in it.

I'm building my Duell Performance with an Phil ENO hub. I'm thinking on what crankset to get that will work best as a single speed roadbike?

Had a leg injury ( bad time in Bosnia) and since then my right foot keep slipping of the pedal. Toe clip is for prevention..

Phil ENO

Brian's lesser known brother?

There seem to be mixed reports on what the chainline of the White Industries ENO hub actually is, I think I'd measure it and then start looking at cranks.

This is awesome!

Sounds like they'd make a fairly good synth duo. All this sounds wise.

Thanks!

When you mix up your King's, Whites and Phil's your obviously want to edit your original post, but that's a bit Donald?

Thanks!

Brian Eno does actually have a lesser known brother. Also an ambient composer :-/

I got this weird old bstone for peanuts and turned it into a 3 speed!

3x1 is the new 1xX?

Anyways, looks great!

They line up pretty well with the outer ring of a road double chainset. I have one of the older type (130mm), with a conventional threaded fixed side with provision for a left-threaded lock ring,and the chainline is 46.5mm -47mm, depending on the brand of cog. I think the newer type with the proprietary splined cog on the fixed side is much the same. You'd probably have more leeway on the free side with the use of spacers and freewheels of different widths.

That's one of the things I've read. It would be nice if WI used some of the massive hipster tax they add to their products to actually provide proper tech docs :)

Got mine second-hand, so plead not guilty.

I've just been given an ex-police bike by a former colleague. He wanted to keep the wheels as the rear has a Rohloff 500/14 hub and this disc rotor which is cool.

^ Clearly braking the law.

Stop!

I bought this frame a while ago and found some forks that fit and turned it into a parts bin pub bike. Left to do; find a front brake and instal a gear cable and bar end plugs.
It's a very weird frame.... It has old Nervex lugs but a front derailleur braze on, campagnolo dropouts, a rattlecan paintjob with Rossin decals and there is a framenumber stamped on the toptube, really curious about the history of this frame!

Amazing!

Call me stupid and I will admit you are right.

The plan is to have Principia Twins. I've just checked that TT and ST are the same lengths in both bikes so the Jet should fit me perfectly, yea I like my bikes bit too small. I start the search for the parts slowly.

Parts bin build. Surprisingly fun to ride.
