Most 27.5+ frames can run standard 29" wheels due to the ID being similar, perhaps a second set of wheels?

Seem like I'll be ok for a while then, it was a fair amount of oil. It first happened in the really hot weather so I assumed it was pressure change but had continued, I think after my exmoor trip I will replace the shift box seals and see if it cures it. Although the hub might be fine it's killed a ...

My rohloff hub appears to be leaking a little oil, it seems to be coming from the external shift box rather than the seal, any clues and is it a diy job? I'm planning a trip to exmoor soon so how much oil can I loose and still be safe riding it. If it needs to go back to Germany hopefully I can wait...

2.5" surly extraterrestrials would work well on those rims

Is all of this really needed? My ecr has 3" tires and plenty of clearance due to the chainstay yoke, the new tumbleweed prospector takes it even further and can run 26x3.8 fatbike tires using a 135mm hub and good old fashioned bb size. I can see some merit in through axels but personally I feel...

Thank you, so funny

I rode a section of it on the dummy fully loaded last year, some of the ruts were deeper than bb height. A good tip is to carry on to the Barge inn at honeystreet after avebury, good camp site and cracking pub. I'm planning to ride it end to end in the spring on the ecr, give me a shout if you want ...
