My response Justin is nothing of the such. You asked and I gave you the
truest and most clear answer I know of . You did not understand what I

I use a sturdy lag ring bolt in a stud. Then a good U-lock to secure the

I ordered mine a few weeks ago, got it in two weeks. I've ordered many

Congrats on the new house. As a fellow Oaklander who knows the area you are
at high risk. I have been thinking about trying to buy a house in the same
area and have given it some thought.

matter. I'd go into the concrete
I thought I'd post a couple pics of my re-purposed 92 Bridgestone MB-2 in
case there were any fans of old mountain bikes on this forum. The build is

etc. More info on my blog if you want to geek out

To post to this group,
Bunch,
Like the subject states, looking to trade my Quickbeam for your Yvez Gomez
or Betty Foy or a Wilbury (hey you never know).
I bought the Quickbeam about two years off the list. It has beausage that
it came with. I did the best I could to reflect it the pictures (link
below).
I agree with Shoji. Your homeowner's should cover it but you may want to
make sure that they cover replacement value, not current value. My bike
was stolen once and I received a check for under $100. After that hard
lesson, I changed my renter's insurance to replacement value. When another
I like them both, but my Paul touring cantis are by far the best brakes
I've ever squeezed. They're better than my short reach Campy sidepulls,
and that's saying something.

i think each have their uses, since you're comparing both on braze-ons, i
don't think there's a huge difference in braking power, especially for
recreational road riding. centerpulls are a bit easier to set up imo, but
cantis are more convenient if you're using wide road tires (switching
My main reason for wanting cantis is so that nothing but air is between the
tire and fork crown for easy fenderability and rackability.
But I am interested in hearing about mechanical pros or cons.
I know BQ states that cantis cause the fork blades to twist. Dont know if that

Along the lines of a tarp, I would recommend replacing any glass windows
with frosted plexie glass. That's what I had done at our previous house in
the city where the garage was right on the alley.

Hello John,
Sorry, no experience with Ribbit brakes, but I do like the Tektro CR720
cantis. I've had them on my Salsa Casseroll for almost two years now. They
work fine, easy to set up, reasonable price and have a good classic long
arm design. Remind me of old school Mafac cantis. I have
I think it is a matter of what you are doing. If you are just riding in
terms of recreational, any kind of braking system (drum, disk, cantilever,
etc) will work but in terms of expense, using typical cantilever, or
caliper brake system is enough.

You can have easy fenderability and rackability with brazed on
centerpulls as well.

I have CR720s on my quickbeam and they are great, provided you use good
pads with them (if i remember correctly the pads they ship with aren't that
awesome).

Hi Justin,
Be careful about storing tools in the garage. I've heard of cases where
tools in the garage were used by burglars to remove locks, etc.
If you haven't already, record your bikes' serial numbers, take some pics,
and check your insurance policy on what is/is not covered.
Good luck!
