As I said, I've become a junkie for Acorn leather washers.
Here is the leather washer spacing between the front dropout lug and long rack stay <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPC310001_zps0b48a01f.jpg> and a novel use for them - on the Bell 11 from Rivbike, it dampens out 90% of the road shock rings, and makes a nice bridge for your thumb <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPC310003_zps612f1b6c.jpg> To adjust fender spacing on my daughter's bike, I used a long M5 and a stack of spacers with a long M5 going into the bottom bracket boss <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPC310005_zps1ce74da2.jpg> And attaching stays to frame bosses, it absorbs misalignment, distributes the contact stress, and as it compresses it becomes a lock washer <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPC310007_zps9c95e0d7.jpg> and of course the obvious spot on a fender stay <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPC310008_zps3883f578.jpg> apologize for the welded aluminum frame, but my daughter is riding 20 miles and climbing hills on her Nexus 8 - with a slight modification - I reduced her front chainwheel to 42 and increased her rear sprocket to 26, keeping the same chain length and turning her bottom two gears into tree climbers. She still hasn't been into the top two gears, but she'll eventually want to go faster. <http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v728/bulldog1935/Raleigh/aPB210002.jpg> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
