Sep 23, 2003 7:48 AM | | Sorry about the derailleur hanger, wasn't sure what I was going to do with it until I got it. So far it's staying SS. Yes, the chain tug opens a bottle. |

Sep 24, 2003 12:02 AM | | What brand of cranks are you running? They look pretty stout. |
| re: Spot detail photos. | whoopicat
Sep 24, 2003 8:45 AM | | They're White Industries. A few years old and no longer made. Sugino made a cheap version with the White name that are horrible. If you can find a proper White pair snap em up. They are bomb proof and nice and shiny. They are introducing a 180mm SS crank at interbike for spring. |

Sep 23, 2003 9:51 AM | | who asked for the detailed photos. Thanks for posting them, nice looking bike!
Question, is your disc mount the "standard" way Spot does them? I'm considering a Spot frame for my primary/maybe only SS. I want the ability to run discs, but am still unsure about EBB. Spot wanted $475 for the EBB upgrade. The option is not worth that to me, I guess it wasn't to you either?

| $475US? Yikes!... | SS_MB-7
Sep 23, 2003 10:53 AM | | The Bushnell EBB itself is about $70US. Not sure why the $475 upcharge.
If you notice in the photo below, in order to remove the rear wheel, you'll need to loosen off/remove the rear brake since the rotor is going to hit the caliper. As a racer, this would be a PITA for flat changes.
I love my EBB! It's been flawless in 3+ yrs of riding!

Sep 23, 2003 12:11 PM | | Yes, It's a pain to remove the rear wheel, but really, it only takes another 30 seconds. If you remove the brake mount from the frame there is no need to readjust after you put it back on.
Pretty welds on that bike by the way.

Sep 24, 2003 8:44 AM | | hi mellowcat, i have a 20" on-one inbred with ebb, on-one rigid fork, pig headset and avid mechs. will let it go to u at a reasonable price including shipping to the states. let me know if u r interested. |

Sep 24, 2003 7:36 PM | | Hey Lynten,
Thanks for the offer. I was looking at the Inbred pretty seriously, but that mega short headtube won't work for me. I have really long legs for my height. I get tired of stacking massive spacers under my stems to get the bars up to a reasonable height.
