VSF Fahrradmanufaktur T400 Rohloff
Frame | Steel, 26-inch wheels, frame-size 52cm (could be slightly bigger, I’m 1,76cm), built in eccentric bottom bracket. |
Drive system | Rohloff Speedhub 14-Speed. Magnificent hub gear-system, reliable, beefy, unfortunately wildly expensive. Built into an Exal MX19 rim. Paired with a 16 tooth sprocket and 42 tooth crank wheel up front |
Brakes | Magura HS33 hydraulic rim brake |
Front Rim | SON 28 Dynamo Hub (powering light + USB-Charger) Exal MX19 rim |
Tires | Schwalbe Marathon Mondial Evo 50mm wide |
Handlebar-Grips | Ergon GP4 with long bar-ends |
Saddle | Brooks B17 (still getting used to it: Leather saddles adjust to the shape of your behind, but do need a few hundred or thousand kilometres before they have transformed) |
Lighting setup | Front: Lumotex IQ Cyo 60 Lux Senso Plus Back: B&M Line LED Love the front light, nice and bright, good for being seen and actually being able to see what’s out ahead |
Kickstand | Pletscher Comp rear stand and a small Tubus front stand attached to the lowrider |
USB-Charger | Forumslader with 10x AA-Batteries. This is an older version of the hugely popular Forumslader. Quite heavy through the 10 AA Batteries (newer versions use light Li-batterypacks), but two 1A USB Outputs means I can keep my electronics charged |
Pedals | Shimano T780 Combi: One side clicks into my bike shoes, the other side can be used with regular shoes |
Carriers | Front: Tubus Tara – massively stable lowrider front rack
Back: Tubus Cargo |
Other stuff: | 3x Bottle holders
Sigma Speedometer Mirror mounted to the Handlebar Grips: Mirrycle Mountain 80mm Complete Ortlieb-Set of Bags, as can be seen in the subsection “My Bike-Gear”
