  • Getting the chainstay dimples does seem to be an easy and cheap modification to give a CDF a bit more clearance there. Not sure when I’ll get round to getting it done on mine but I’ll report back. I just can’t really face stripping the bike down right now - I use it more than all my other bikes Put together

  • It'd be great to hear how you get on. I did consider dimpling my Kaffenback, but with the existing dimples inside the chainstays plus the chainring dimple on the outside, there's no room left on the drive side chainstay. Is the CdF already dimpled on the outside and/or inside?

  • Here’s a photo from underneath so you can see the existing dimples both sides. I’ve no idea yet if extending those inner dimples further rearwards would cause issues with the drive side dimple.
