Project Right #6

The latest Project Right bike features the modular hubset first used on Gary’s build. But this time with a singlespeed freewheel and front and rear disc brakes. The Gates beltdrive keeps the drivetrain quiet and smooth, with the frame design meaning no split is required for belt installation.

Shimano XTR calipers are used – the rear is unmodified, but the front is adapted to a custom mount to allow for being on the right and on the rear of the fork. The levers are from TRP, as being the only dropbar (non-shifter) hydraulic lever available. To allow the levers and calipers to pair (since they both have a banjo fitting), custom hose joiners were machined.

A Co-motion eccentric BB was modified to a 86mm width, and installed in a custom machined shell. The headset has custom EC cups, with Cane Creek bearings to suit the 1-1/4″ tapered steerer.

The paint is by Colorworks, and the final weight as shown is 18.5lbs.
