There’s three things a man needs on a Friday night. Beer, pizza, and pictures of a Bushy. So pull up a comfy chair, crack open a cold one, and have a gander at some more pics of the EBR.

Real happy with these new Paragon Sliders. They’re ludicrously expensive, but they give a much better perch for the stays to attach to. Because the sliders place the rear wheel further away from where the stays attach, essentially they’re adding a fair wack of leverage on an area that doesn’t normally experience it. This goes some way to improving that, just from the fact that the stays have a larger surface weld area. Definitely worth the cash if you’re in the market for a Ti Singlespeed/Rohloff frame.

Also getting good clearance from these stays. We ended up taking some regular round stays and ovalised the portion that approaches the BB. The tire is a 55mm wide Bontrager, so there’s plenty of room for everything. Actually all the Arete Ti’s have these, but I just thought I’d point that out.
