As always, a lot of great and useful info from RBW. Thanks, everybody. After careful consideration, I am..... *not* buying the $699 QB frame. I know its size commands a premium, and so the price probably isn't too high. But I really can't use a single speed bike on longish rides (which are my preference). I need a range of gears. So, I would be forcing the bike into doing something it isn't really meant to do, despite what Jim Warren has done with gearing his QB. I may not be up to that much fiddling.
Besides, I would need yet another set of wheels for the SS 120mm spacing, and yet another crank (single or compact double).... in no time I'm in for $1000, while my triples and derailers and shifters and 8-speed wheels continue to sit around waiting for something to do. Just can't face it. I thought I might have a fling with that hot little Quickbeam, but I am gonna stick with the trusty Bomb, and the two of us will wait and see what the future brings us. Thanks again for helping me think it through! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
