Can the frame take a standard rear hub or will it need to be a SS specific hub/wheel?
It will take whatever 10mm axle mtb hub (ie 135mm) you want, although you'd need a socket to fasten on a bolt-on hub (ie with 15mm nuts on the end) as it has cowled dropouts.
I have a normal qr xt hub in mine (ie 135mm o.l.d. and a freehub that will take a normal cassette, but mine has a singlespeed sprocket and spacer kit).
Hope that helps.
PS great frames but if you are buying, check the geometry: the soloist is about three quarters to an inch shorter in the top tube than the breath/life in all three sizes.
As above. And yes, a lovely ride.
Great, thanks for the replies.
I've looked at the geo and it looks about right compared to what it will be replacing.
