Hi Kite85,
Great looking bike. Interestingly I have all the parts for my build and their not too dissimilar to yours.
The only parts I need are the wheels. I too was looking at the Roval Traversee but was told the 15mm adaptors weren’t ready until mid March. Imagine my surprise seeing yours!
I know you live in France but how did you get the 15mm adaptors. Did they come with the wheels?
Cheers Glen

What size Nobby Nics did you get? 2.1 or 2.25.
If you used 2.25 is the clearance okay?
Thanks

Hi Kite 85,
I don't know if you remember me but I got a set of Roval Travsersee wheels and was waiting on 15mm conversion kit for my new Fox forks.
You'll not be surprised to hear that Roval now can't give any dates when they will have these. Some people you speak too say a few more months others say there not in the pipeline.
I'd be interested to see how you managed with your fork/wheel combination. Is the "bodge" you mention fairly straight forward. Is it ridable and more importantly safe?
It would be great if you could put up some pics.
Cheers Glen
