  • Had a little light mount made for it recently - really happy with how it turned out.

  • That is a very posh version of the quarter-chainring! Looks great.

  • Everytime I see this it amazes me how good this build is <3

  • Amazing bike. Can you share what you've had done for the dynamo routing, both front and rear?

    I'll have some alterations made to my frame soon and I'm debating whether I should add routing for the rear lamp myself.

  • Not concerned about the Rohloff flanges shitting themselves? They do the flange rings in silver too…

  • @kjlem tyvm

    @sealclub I had guides for dynamo added to the fork, downtube and under the platform supports when I got all the other work done. from the BB shell, it's just routed inside the fender to the taillight with gorilla tape. I'll take some photos when I have a chance.

    @sbbohr Not terribly worried, no.

  • Here are some photos of the dynamo routing - it's surprisingly hard to get good pictures, but here you go.

    The coax cable snaps into the guides on the fork and downtube without any need for a zip tie etc. The guides under the rack are just hydro guides. On the downtube you can see a stick-on Di2 thingy - this is because the guides were spaced too far apart causing the cable to droop a bit. The plan is to go back this winter to have two more added along with a third hydro guide for the underside of the rack where the fat ziptie is now. The mess with the noodle and the R-clips is due to the fact that the light doesn't move with the fork.

  • Thanks so much for all the pictures, that's exactly what I needed! Are you happy with the "snap" guides (do they hold the cable correctly?), and do you happen to know where your framebuilder got them/what's the reference?

  • I'm very happy with them. He fabricated them from scratch using tubing with a 3mm ID I believe.

  • Good to know, thanks again!
