Q-factor, well like I said I can bring them in closer to the chainstays, just need to sort out my spacer situation. But the Manitous were originally spec'ed with a 115mm bb shell, mine is 68mm, so I'm already well inboard of that!syncrosfan":7xf7jl2a said:Nice! Good job on those Bullseye cranks. I know they're quite popular but man, look at that Q-factor! Are they at least decently light?
I will be hitting you up too.mkozaczek":qeljmp3x said:I should be able to rebuild Bullseye bearings later this summer. The die I use to cut the seals broke and I haven't had a chance to get a new one made.

Aahh the agony. I know what that feels like.shamobius":3hbf134g said:Oh the waiting...
I have everything but the rear wheel, which should have been built over a week ago. The builder got the front wheel done easily enough, but I guess the spokes of the rear wheel he selected were just a tad short, and he kept stripping out the threads on the nipples. Looking for the right spokes, trying to be patient. Oh well, gives me time to fine tune and tinker. And dream, and wonder what the ride qualities will be. So close!!!
