Also, a followup:  has anyone put a disk brake on the front wheel of a

V1 Freerider?  Problems, issues, tips?





=======================



I'm getting an electric assist motor for my sport utility cruzbike and

the company (ecospeed.com of Portland, Oregon) needs to know the outer

diameter of the front "downtube" on my V1. Freerider (the tube that

runs from the crank/bottom bracket to the actual front wheel downtube,

and that has the adjustment on the rider's side of the handlebar

post).  I don't have any calipers handy and it occurred to me that

this should be a stock answer.



So, if you know the answer -- the outer diameter of that tube on the

crank side of the handlebar post, please advise.  The company says I

need it accurate to a millimeter.



Thanks!

John Gear

I have it on a v2 freerider, and i had to get a rear caliper. It works

fine, i have a 203 mm disc on a Rohloff.
