[#1913961]

Sitting here looking at my Ti cx and was wondering why was the reason for doing the On-One cx bikes with 135mm rear? Was it just easy or something else, i'm not worried about it but just curious.

Expect one of Brants usual blunt answers ๐Ÿ™‚

Presumably so that you could use discs with it since 130mm disc hubs aren't easily available

When we did that, there weren't many road hubs with disc mounts available.

And I think we had a lot of mountainbike hubs we wanted to sell.

Did you know that Merlin (the Ti people) used to do 132.5mm spacing which you just flexed whichever way was right for you.
