+1 on the Rohloff reliability, but you'll need to respace the frame. -----Original Message----- From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bu...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Adam Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2010 10:02 AM To: RBW Owners Bunch Subject: [RBW] Quickbeam/Simpleone and Rohloff hub
I am doing some research for a friend who intends to build up either a Quickbeam or Simpleone with a Rohloff 14 speed hub. He and I recently did a mini tour down to Half Moon Bay, from Berkeley, and we met a couple from Switzerland. They had ridden tens of thousands of miles around the world on their Rohloff hubs and claimed not a single maintenance problem, best sales pitch ever. He was sold. I am curious if anyone on this list has experience building up either of these frames with a Rohloff, and if the spacing is practical? http://www.rohloff.de/en/products/speedhub/index.html Also, he is in the search for a Quickbeam or Simpleone in the 57-59 cm range if there are any out there.
