that's just what i'm saying, the eccentric bb is a good solution if the situation calls for it, but there is no reason at all for the eccentric bb on these steelwood bikes. it simply adds another layer of complexity where it is not needed and they try to pass it off as "never needed to fiddle with chain length"
my question is simply, "why? what's the point? what's the benefit in using this system on these otherwise completely commonplace, normal, run of the mill bikes?"
