Love/Hate
Love singlespeed? Hate singlespeed.
Who cares? Just ride it.
The new Mk2 version of the Love/Hate frame has dispensed with the mech hanger of its predecessor, but it's just as versatile as before thanks to the Phil Wood eccentric bottom bracket (EBB) system. You can set it up as a pure singlespeed, or you can fit some gears to it by either using a hub which can take a bolt-on rear mech or, as many Love/Hate riders have done already, hooking it up with a Rohloff or Shimano Alfine hub gear system.
The Mk2 Love/Hate is still made of Reynolds 520 cro-moly steel, is clean and simple in design, and there are no ugly or unreliable sliding dropouts to spoil its good looks or functionality. You can also forget any stories you might have heard about EBBs creaking as the Phil Wood EBB works impeccably and in silence!
Frame detail
All Love/Hate frames now come with the Phil Wood “relieved” EBB as standard.
