Brent, from Phil Wood, informed me that they've manufactured 145mm bottom bracket axles for you Pugsley owners who want to use a tapered axle/crank system. $180.00 complete. Yep, that's a bit of dough, but it's Phil Wood. You know it's gonna last.
I'll raise a glass or two or three to Phil Wood for offering another component option for the Pug.
