That\u2019s great but it does limit the gearing choices. With a single ring the max is 36t. You can bypass this and get a little wider range by using a Rohloff Speedhub. We\u2019ve done that here and as this bike isn\u2019t destined for anything super remote we\u2019ve also fitted a Gates Belt Drive. We also supplied a spar belt, just in case\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An already relaxed riding position is taken a little further with Jones Loop H Bars and some small \u2018aero\u2019 bars for a change of tempo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>lighting and charging is taken care of by the Sinewave Beacon, SON Dynamo hub and rear light on the seatstay. Such a small, neat and reliable package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>as the first trip for this bike is a mere 1350k back across Europe some comfort will be provided by the Brooks Cambium, Ergonomic biokork grips and the CaneCreek eeSilk seatpost. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>29 x 2.0 Maxxis Ramblers set up with Stans tubeless on Halo Vapour rims, these will go up to a 2.25\u201d if needed in the future.
