Thanks all for the thoughtful responses. I've emailed Alex Wetmore to
inquire about his process in adjusting the Quickbeam's rear spacing.
My buddy is pretty set on the Rohloff, as well as a Rivendell, so I'll
let you all know how his process goes.
Had anyone ever used Sheldon's prescribed
Anylocal who wants to spread a frame can use our tool for it. We won't
do it for you, you do it yourself and break your own frame (highly
unlikely, but this is your deal). It's a Hozan tool made only for
this job. One bike shop in 600 has one. It hooks onto the rear
dropouts and spreads 'em with

If anybody's interested, I have a used Rohloff for sale. I used it
for about a year and a half on my Hilsen. It's quite the machine.
Contact me directly at rgo...@earthlink.net.

I believe Alex Wetmore used this configuration. If he doesn't chime in
here, try posting your question to the iBob list. Also, google his
name plus rohloff quickbeam and you'll find pics of his build.
Good luck!

I didn't re-read it but I think there is some Rohloff info in there. I
was at RBW yesterday and the 58cm burgundy Simpleone
You might also check out the new Alfine 11. It's completely
redesigned and, dare I say, now a viable competitor with the
Rohloff and about half the price of the Rohloff.
That said, the Alfine 11 rear spacing (135) is the same as the
Rohloff, so respacing is still an issue.

Has anyone respaced a frame from 120mm to 135mm ?
Did you need to get the brake bridge moved or replaced ?

I had a custom bike built around te Rohloff, so no spacing problems. I
believe you may need to use a chain tensioner if the bike is not
properly set up for the hub.
I had maintenance problems with my Rohloff. The seal blew after a
very short while. Rohloff was in between U.S. distributors at

I too would love to hear an answer to that question, since if it is wise, I'm
pretty sure I'll do it to mine.

Adam,
This was a bit spooky...
In October of 2005, while riding my All-Rounder from the Rivendell
weekend back to my then home in Los Angeles, I ran into a Swiss couple
on bikes with 14 speed Rohloff hubs...they loved them. They said they
were heading down the coast into Mexico...wonder if it's
if it is wise,
I'm pretty sure I'll do it to mine.
