Hello,
I'm looking to build a lunacycle mid drive E-Bike with the LR big block. I wanted to ask some questions to make sure I'm not making any mistakes in some parts I'm getting.
1) Most important is the rohloff rear hub. I'm looking at getting the Speedhup 500/14 TS DB Standard (non tandem non OEM) is this the right unit for fixed bolt on and disc brakes for this bikes rear dropouts? Kind of confused on the whole OEM/OEM2/Standard thing.
2) Frame Size
Anyone that have a frame can send me some general dimensions? Luna says you need a long cable for brake and shifter but cannot tell me at least how long. Neither can they tell me if this frame is more on the medium or large size frame. I'm 6ft with very long legs and I'm wondering how high I will have to put the seat. (I normally use Large frames on MB).
3) Rack info
The racks looks entirely custom, non standard. Anyone can tell me what size panniers/bozes fit? Can I get cargo bike panniers or only standard?
4) Seat post diameter
Again nobody at luna seems to be able to tell me their seat post diameter. is it 27.2?
4) Front fork sizing
I hear the front fork dropouts are a non standard size (125mm) how about the Steer tube? What dimensions to look for replacement 1 1/8?
Thanks for any info. It seems Luna has made these forums their support site for this frame. All my emails to them have had "ask Endless Sphere" as a reply. You'd think they would know about their own product.
