What stops the belt coming off on the front chainring? From the photos it looks like it might slip off in the inside or is this not a problem?

 

Awesome allround builds Dangle.

Thanks.

The belt needs to be perfectly straight.

It has a small room for tolerance.

But provided you are in a straight line, no problem.

I have it running more towards the outside.

She looks good Dangle .... I really love the graphics of the steel raleigh's they are bringing in now!

 

So how does she ride / handle, both the frame and drive train?

S.I.R.Maxxis, ek het dit gekoop by 'n winkel in kaapstad. Daar is nog een oor! 'n wit een, R3300 brand new, gemaak deur Camissa Bicycles. Hier is die winkel se website, eks seker jy kan 'n email adres daar kry! www.starlingandhero.co.za

I have a Giant XTC carbon 26 frame, plus Fox fork, bar/stem/post/seat and thinking of building a SS, or even a 1x10.

 

Can I use a spare 105 road crank as a single ring on this - will it be wide enough not to catch on seat stays?

 

Also frame has v-brake bosses, but fork has not - any thoughts on v-brakes rear, and disc up front?
