SSCX Only!

There are eccentric bottom brackets as well, thought for a regular BSA crankbox you still might need a halflink for the chain

From sscxwc this weekend in madison Wisconsin! Thanks @Josh for the eno hub recommendation, i found it a bit finicky but it did the job. Several times over the weekend the wheel would move in the dropouts and my tire started rubbing on the chain stays. Have you had this experience with yours? Otherwise great weekend, I forgot how amazing it is to ride bikes with people. Pictured is me right after the race completely covered in beer and also the dynamic hay bale feature where most of the beer was being poured from.

Have you had this experience with yours?

Yeah, that was my experience of the eno hub. Never used one for sscx, but given it moved when using it commuting on the road, I'd imagine it would move when you put a lot of torque in through it, like you do in cx.

I should try and get to the sscx worlds one year, it's been on my races I'd like to do list for years. Sounds like you had a blast?

I've not had any problems with it slipping during riding and I've smashed it around trail for near 2 years.

Though sometimes when I need to tension it in a bike stand it can slip, so some finesse is required and make sure you do it up tight enough!

Also, rad bike.

Yeah it was a lot of fun. I was staying with the rock lobster team which made for an especially raucous weekend. Im excited to sleep. I will do some experimenting with the hub and see if I can figure out a solution.

Thank you! Does the hub fit well within the dropouts on your bike? Ive got some fat welds that get in the way of it rotating fully, Im wondering if that is effecting its ability to stay put.

I have the same frame (stigmata) and can confirm the welds are chunky and will most likely get in the way.

The frame I use the WI eno hub on is a Marin palisade trail with the lovely cast dropouts. Very smooth face to work with.
