1995-6
Bontrager Road Lite
Easton fork, Bontrager barends, Crank Bros. grips, Easton carbon
bar, Moots stem, XT V-brake lever, Shimano Ultegra brake, Cane Creek
headset, Bontrager race lite seatpost, Ultegra BB and crank with
39t chainring, Eggbeater pedals, and Speed Dream Dave's wheels (F:
White Ind. 20 spoke LTA hub, Velocity rim, Ultegra skewer. R: White
Ind. ENO eccentric 32 spoke hub, White Ind. 16-17 freewheel, Velocity
rim, Bontrager 25mm tires). 15.9 lbs.
The
eccentric hub rotates the rear wheel back and down just enough to
exceed the Ultegra brake's short pad reach to the rim sidewall.
So, no rear brake. Changing gears is not something one does during
a ride, as repositioning the eccentric hub in the dropouts is necessary
to properly tension the chain, which takes more time unclipped than
I am willing to spend once the cranks start spinning.Ê
Enjoy,
