Thanks. Can you believe we have posted this for sale in order to add 3lbs for S&S couplers?! :/ Wifey likes the Calfee so much she wants to travel more easily with it into wee airports and countries with weeny baggage handlers.

The eccentric is not an issue for us as we use standard Shimano BB6700 bottom brackets (FSA MegaExo is similar). It was just under discussion about available options for using other eccentrics. I think it becomes an issue if you have a bottom bracket type (square taper spindle with unsealed bearings?) that pushes out on the eccentric sides, which is when you need an expander type eccentric that is not effected by that. It's a mute point otherwise.
