Current Projects chat and miscellany

remember it has road geometry and it would build up to a rather nice road bike,
if u so wished.
for the price of SUper T track end you could get yourself a white industries eccentric hub
which would give you flexibility as to the function of the bike
i.e you could get a geared wheel and wack some gears on it for a weekend or what not.
I have a similar ribble too, i used the WI hub. clearances are epic. possibly the rizla worthy.

Not really a downside, you can easily use derailleurs with track end with a mounted hanger (or a track end with integrated hanger).

the old time trail bike tend to have track end instead of horizontal drop out when running geared.
