Rohloff > Derailleur convertion
« on: December 11, 2018, 09:17:16 AM »
Some 3 years ago I bought a RAVEN which has a Rohloff hub and after many miles I have come to the conclusion I prefer a derailleur setup

Is it possible to convert to derailleur or are the frames different

Thanks

Frames are different, no bosses for gear cables, no hanger for rear mech, not even sure you would find a position in the eccentrics rotation where a front mech would work.

Which size of Raven do you have? Its probably a better plan to sell the Raven and buy a Sherpa.

Raven's come in 420S-T,475,500,530,565,600. So its probably a 600, not the easiest size to sell but it would still sell i'm sure.
