Need a measurement please.

[gwoodbridge]

I just pulled the trigger on a Vendetta Frame set.

While I'm waiting, could somebody please provide a measurement for me?

I putting a dynamo hub on it and I need to know the distance from the rear hub, up the seat stay, through the frame into the slider, down the boom and out the hole at the bottom of the boom to the cross bar.

This will be the distance from the hub to the location I plan on mounting the head light and I need to know how long of wire to get. I'm hoping to mount it along with the rear break cable in the frame.

Thanks,

Gary

Roughly 86 inches (219 cm) is what I get, and I allowed for some extra at each end since I've no idea where the actual connectors might end up.

Disclaimer - My medium sized Vendetta is currently disassembled for repair so I eyeballed some of the transitions with the nylon cord I used to approximate your wire. Also my boom has been trimmed 100mm and my slider is inserted to fit me at around 39 inches x-seam so consider that in how much you want to trust my measurement. If you have a large Vendetta, there may be some additional run to the cross bar depending on where John locates it on the large chainstay.

Thank You

Eric,

Thank you sir.

I did forget to mention frame size. It is medium.

Now I get to wait. Hopefully not as long as you did!

Thanks again,
Gary

What is the size of the tube behind the BB ring clamps?

Need one more measurement.

What is the diameter of the tube between the chainstays that is behind/below the BB ring clamps?

For those of you that have mounted a light in this location, did you use standard handle bar mount here or a oversized handle bar mount?

Thanks again.

Gary

22.2mm, sized that way to hopefully accept most light mounts.
