with the chainring in a different location it just means that the shift pins and shift ramps are in a different location respective to the crank arm. A rider may like his chainring to grab the chain on a particular position of his chainring so his crankarms are in a particular relationship with the bike. so... basically he wants the chain to be on the chainring right when he is ready to hammer. when your racing at his level you cant lose any time. even a half second of turning your cranks another 90* may be the difference in winning. (thats what i think...)
its called the "Bass"? i remember a Bianchi bike named the "Bass" as well. ive seen this before and some lawsuits followed. actually, its a "Bad Ass Single Speed" but check it out: http://www.flickr.com/photos/_lyle_/404676090/
also abp is for use with any axle type, quick release or thru axle
well abp is differnt in one key aspect, it uses a total of 4 bearings instead of Weagles 2.
sounds like operator error.
there will always be 135 hubs on the market. look at the regular quick release. it was invented by tulio campagnolo 90 years ago. guess what. almost every hub manufacture except for BMX still makes a QR hub. even though 20mm is so much better. unless you havent been born yet the 135 hub will be around far longer than we will.
so its the same stiffness. used with the same BB. you can use the same hub. but its easier to put the axle in. maybe 12X135 is the lame standard. ever thought of that? About Us
