Hey can anyone tell me the following for a Slacker frame?
BB dimensions - 68mm shell width, spindle width ???
Seatpost size - 29.2mm ???
Rear wheel spacing - 135mm ???
Thanks in advance. I have done some hunting around the site, but I can't locate a post with that info in it, although I'm positive I've seen it mentioned quite a few times.

spindle width depends on cranks used etc, but she is a 68mm shell
29.2 seatpost (most of them are shimmed to 27.2) and yup in the rear end, (my one key is borked)

Cheers, that's what I thought - and yup that makes perfect sense on the spindle width. I always figured it was related to the width of the BB plus some additional figure, but it makes sense that it relates to crank type. Thanks again

A 27.2mm seatpost with a 2mm shim in it will solve your problem.
27.2 is easier to find.
Phillips seatposts, Thompson posts, ect ect...

I have a Ritchey one in mine that's a 29.2. It's old though and came with the frame, dunno if they still make them.
