I've done just about every type of cycling but this, so here goes. I just
picked up a lovely silver Quickbeam with the stock Suzie hubs Riv used. It's
threaded on both sides and had one freewheel. Will a fixed cog work on the
other side, or does that take a specific threading? I know these

Yeah, that's a good solution. I just visualized three bikes inside the van
like U-locking several bikes together. That's a problem I encounter
frequently, but never with a pedal wrench on hand :)

Good to know, man -- I might be heading back towards a bar end setup after
winter and am perfectly happy indexing 10 sp drive trains these days.

I’ve got an upcoming build with these. I’ve heard that they have some shared
mechanical lineage with Campagnolo bar ends, but have yet to verify.
I’ll be using them as a 1 x 11 setup with the FD shifter setup to actuate a
dropper post.
Never dreamed I’d share such a decision on the RBW
I've got a single 1x11spd Sram SL-500 on a new bike. Nice lever with very

YMMV. I love the look but hate the feel.
I used "non-aero" (at the time, we just called them "brake levers")
levers on my 64 Dunelt, and for 20 years on my P15 Paramount. I
switched to aero style levers in 1991 and haven't braked from the drops
since. It's all brake from the hoods except
I don't hear them mentioned on here much. Maybe because they're
10-speed.. But I really like the lever shape on the SRAM S-500, very comfy
and the color's good. Didn't put them on my roadini because it was a
9-speed build.
Congratulations on your new Rivendell. Very nifty build!

The pivot is located in a different place, and you have a lot less
leverage than with the aero style.
/Æro levers are generally an improvement over the older type. The
pivots are located differently, making it possible to get fairly
serious braking from the position where the rider's
Very pretty! Out of curiosity, what is the supposed issue braking from the

Congrats! It was a tough decision between the XCD, VO, and Rene Herse. I'm

Will warned me to not count on breaking from the hoods if I went non-aero,
but it really isn't bad at all. Most aggressive breaking is in the drops
but when I'm up on the hoods, it is mellow.

Thanks for the ride report, Collin. One of these days, I may do the exact
same ride myself (I'm in Oakland also). I've been to some of those places
but not by bike.

No special chainrings; just a 8-speed era mtb Logic triple with the outer
ring replaced by a guard. Back with my first friction 10 speed, the crank
was an old TA Pro 5 Vis, but that was a single ring setup.

Yoo. So damn cool! I’m just getting into lugged steel and Riv bikes. Never
knew much about bikes until very recently (last couple months). I just barely
got through finalizing the purchase of my first one two days ago (prior to
that, the guys at Riv we’re holding it for me on a deposit).

Patrick, thanks for the info on 10 speed friction. Did you use 10 speed
specific or ramped and pinned chainrings? That's cool to hear someone
managed to get 12 speed to work in friction. I wonder if they used a clutch

I have the same tent and love it. It's very roomy for a ultralight 1p tent,
and the side entrance and tall roof makes it much easier to get in and out
compared to other weight weenie tents.

This is my favorite tent. I have the UL1 & UL2. It has vertical walls, plenty
of length and sit-up height for my 6ft frame, a good vestibule, free standing.
There are slightly lighter tents that are semi-free standing. This is a good
value especially with the ground cloth. Recommended.
