I did an endo on my Sam a few weeks ago, described below if anyone is interested. Saddle is Selle Anatomica mounted on a VO 2-bolt seatpost with lots of setback. The rails of the saddle got pretty bent but I was able to readjust the angles and position to where I like it. There is a bit of up and down play if I push the back of the saddle with my hand, but for all I know it was always like that. Is this OK or should I be looking for a new saddle?
Jay Circumstances of endo, if anyone is interested: 1. Infrastructure - 2 way bike lane next to a fast interurban road, 1 lane in each direction, clearly marked with freshly painted bikes and arrows every 100 feet or so 2. Me - Downhill in the correct lane at 25 mph on my Sam. 2nd day with the Albas and proper levers for v-brakes which replaced the Tektro hack for road bars and v-s 3. Obstacle - Some dude riding uphill straight at me in the wrong lane. Guess he didn't understand the meaning of the freshly painted white arrows every 100 feet? 4. Result - "hey" -> nothing, I move left, he moves right, I hit brakes too hard and flip, collision avoided, me on pavement 5. Injuries - nothing major, I was a bit banged up and sore for a few weeks after but after a short rest I rode the rest of the way to work and cleaned up there Unfortunately, as far as I know there is no video of what must have been a very impressive somersault. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
