Frames with eccentric B.B.

Just wanted to know what frames are out there that had an eccentric bottom bracket and a vertical dropout? Frame would need to be a cross country frame as well.

It would appear that a Bushnel eccentric works in any frame. I have not tried one though.

On-One do a tasty Ti EBB frame if you've got the $$$

I think that they only have 20" ones left though.

Bushnell ebb inserts are oversized. The bottom bracket shell is not standard.
Jenson carries an ebb Reynolds 853 frame. Pretty reasonably priced at $425.

The Kona Unit, with it's sliding dropouts, provides an alternative solution to ebbs.

I just wish someone else would start making one, to force the price down a little bit!
