Hi
I am still looking at a Rohloff hub for a new bike build and had a question regarding the correct type of chain ring / crank set.
I have decided on a Maverick Durance which takes the standard 135mm width hub. I plan to run the 16T sprocket.
The question I have is what brands of 44T chain ring / crank set would be compatible with this hub? The width of the BB is 73mm. I would like to minimise any shims required in order to keep the chain straight.
I am not bike technical (it probably shows ) but I can understand technical concepts if they are explained in words of one syllable. Is there is a formula that I can use?
Any commentary on any other 'gotcha's' for this frame / hub combination would also be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
