Doing it right now! Cheers @amey

Hello all, anyone come across this issue? 2020 equilibrium, TRP 957 calliper brakes. The cable mount for the brake calliper is placed exactly in front of the frame mounts for the rear derailleur, turning the bars is going to make the cables foul each other. Hope the picture shows this well.

Please share if you have any ideas how to avoid this! Thanks in advance

Sorry for the delayed response chaps, thanks for your answers.
Brommers- Probably a standard bar, maybe 680mm. Definitely dropper post. Terrain-wise, South Downs, QECP and the surrounding singletrack, then in time moving onto routes like the Badger divide and areas like Glentress when I head north to visit friends. I’m thinking less of a slack modern bike, and more of a trail bike from what I’ve been reading.
Macaroon- good points thanks, notes about the dropper post length and the cranks. RE: sizing up and pushing the saddle forwards, this is all making me think that an M is more suitable than an S.
Which, given the lack of availability of an M frame currently in the U.K. gives me plenty of time to catch up with Scherrit! Cheers guys.

Depends on what you mean by low cost, but this seems like a reasonable price.

Cheers guys, thanks for your thoughts. I feel a bit guilty pestering Scherrit, I’ve already emailed him a few times since my last fit with lengthy questions! I need to go back and see him I think.
Thanks Hippy, those are good points, and yeah the wider bars and shorter stem is making any comparison hard in my head.
Might just try a few MTB’s out at the local bike shops, to get an idea of the position, there’s no chance of any Surly stock until 2021 now though.

Anyone got any advice for choosing an MTB frame size based on a road bike fit please? Should the saddle be in the same place on both styles of bike?

I have a 54cm Trek Emonda which Scherrit thought was a touch too big, I'm now looking at a Surly Karate Monkey [as a first MTB] and I'm on the cusp of small or medium at 172cm/just over 5'7. If I run my road saddle position [705mm BB to mid-saddle, 47mm of saddle layback], then I reckon the small is the right size.

Can anyone offer any advice? I can share my full road fit if it helps.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the replies guys. @duncs- great find, thanks!

Did this frame sell in the end? Thx

Can I dibs the SMP please? Will message you. Thanks

any chance of more photos of the bag please?

Still available?

Anyone got any suggestions for a front rack ((small or large) that I could mount on this fork? Not much weight, but will be riding some singletrack and rough terrain with around 3-5kg of weight.
Very keen to avoid p-clips , but without any bosses on the fork I’m struggling to find a rack.
The bottom eyelet is recessed behind the thru-axle mount, so I will probably have to end up bending the rack mounts if I’m using these eyelets. Keen to avoid having to dismantle the rack if I puncture.
Any ideas? Cheers

What’s the verdict on this hub-geared Arkose? It’d be a cycle to work voucher job. Anyone got experience of this hub and how long between service intervals?
Thanks in advance!

Willing to post to Po20?

Has this gone?

Still got the FSA seatpost? How much, and would you post to PO20 please mate?

I’ll DM you- interested! Cheers

Giro have it for £275 new though. Is the warranty transferable?

I'm nearby. Happy to help later on in the week, can get to Bognor on Monday unless it's really urgent.

I have a specialised diverge, size 56, 2016 A1 claris model. Needs a new freewheel, looking for £350. It's got the usual minor bumps and scrapes, but no crashes. I'll sort the freewheel for £25. Comes with a spare chain and cassette. Chichester based.

After a 27.2mm, 35mm layback seatpost, carbon or alloy, colour not important. Collection or postage to West Sussex.
If anyone knows any good links or sources please let me know!
Cheers
