Jason, That's a wild rough-stuff setup on your Hilborne! As an owner of both a Hilborne and an older model Hilsen, both are wonderful bikes. You would not fit 48's on the latter, though. I use my Hillborne as a fendered tourer with 35 mm tires because of the (slightly) stiffer tubing. The Hilsen is used as a fendered mixed-terrain bike with 38 mm tires, but carry very little weight on it. It has a bit more lively feel than the Hilborne. I love them both. https://www.flickr.com/photos/bikecrazy-paul/48959491076/in/album-72157711498338087/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/bikecrazy-paul/46793762461/in/album-72157705950163554/

If reality were not applicable, I would want an old geo Homer with the fenders and slicks, and the Sam would stay fenderless with the knobby 48c's. ISO a 52cm Homer back when it didn't have cargo-bike chainstays.... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
