The Rohloff Speedbone is a clever accessory that provides a pickup point for the OEM2 axle plate on frames with IS mounts. By attaching to the outside of the IS mounts along with the existing disc caliper mount, the Speedbone eliminates the need for a torque arm to stabilize the axle. It is particularly useful for frames with IS disc mounts that do not use disc brakes, such as some tadpole trikes with front brakes only. With the Speedbone, you can securely install the OEM2 axle plate and enjoy the benefits of a stable and reliable Rohloff Speedhub.
Benefits:
- Simplified installation: The Speedbone makes it easy to install the OEM2 axle plate on frames with IS mounts, eliminating the need for a separate torque arm.
- Enhanced stability: By providing a pickup point for the axle plate, the Speedbone ensures a secure and stable connection between the frame and the Rohloff Speedhub.
- Versatile compatibility: The Speedbone is compatible with frames that have IS disc mounts, even if disc brakes are not used. This expands the options for using the OEM2 axle plate without compromising stability.
