As the subject says, theres another stolen SimpleOne out there now. Last Thursday night I was out at Golden Gardens in Seattle enjoying the sunset with some friends. Bikes were parked ~15 feet away on the beach, which was far enough for someone to make off unnoticed. They kindly left another friends tandem and my helmet plus gloves behind. Already reported to SPD etc, though I have little hope of recovery.
First was my daily commuter, 62CM SimpleOne frame serial M1011115. At time of theft included black revelate frame bag, black Haulin Colin front rack + wald basket, Supernova light, "Velo Orange" branded SP dynamo hub, salsa delgado rims, silver Paul cantilever brakes, schwalbe little big ben tires. https://bikeindex.org/bikes/46199 Second was a friends 1993 XO-2, purple paint, 54cm frame, serial H220098. At time of theft included silver rear rack, white bar tape, salsa 38cm short and shallow drop bars, nitto periscopa stem, bar end shifters, original deore 3x7 drive train, original wheelset. https://bikeindex.org/bikes/46200 And now the question, suggestions for a similar single speed frame? The SimpleOne was my favoritist bike, used for daily commuting, shenanigans, and bike camping. Im seriously considering getting a clone custom made, but would like a replacement in a sooner time frame. Are there any production frames with a similar 72.5/72.5 and midlong chainstay geometry? If nothing else I might round up an 80s steel touring frame and throw a SimpleOne fork on it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
