[RBW] Re: Looking for a 57 or 55cm Bleriot...
Hey guys, I hope whichever of you are looking to switch sizes figures it out ... I just wanted to toss in that I'm looking for a 55 Bleriot myself ... nothing to trade unless somebody wants a 54 Velo Orange Polyvalent once I replace it. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. On May 21, 9:09 pm, Bill webe...@gmail.com wrote: In a perfect world you, Scott, would get a 55 on loan, put on your wheels, saddle, handlebars and controls, and a stem sized according to the bike fitting, and lay down a hundred or so miles on it. By then you'll know if it's right. And if you try a 53 you should be mindful that a too-long stem with a too-short top tube doesn't make a perfect fit. If you find the right 53 or 55 and are looking at a buy instead of a swap, I'm still game for your 59. ~Bill On May 21, 12:12 pm, Justin August justinaug...@gmail.com wrote: I have a 55.

Seems the 53 would be optimal and the 55 very doable. So any 53 owners out there? Please email me and let's talk (I'll wait a few days and if no dice, Jason I would like to talk about your 55).

Re: [RBW] Torque Spec's
If you go to the Park Tools website at this link http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/torque-specifications-and-concepts http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/torque-specifications-and-conceptsthere is a table of torque specifications. It doesn't specifically address Nitto stems, but it can be a useful guideline. Here's another that does not address Nitto, but it does list forged stems: http://www.bike-manual.com/brands/bontrager/om/BT/torque_specifications.htm Then there's this old one from the rec.tech.bicycles faq, http://www.faqs.org/faqs/bicycles-faq/part2/section-31.html which is probably the oldest. I've used it since the mid-'80s, so I'd figure it applies. I have certainly used it on Cinelli and Tech Deluxe stems, so it does not get you into trouble. Have you checked on the Nitto website? I don't go with the philosophy that I'm such a good mechanic that I can just feel it. I know from experience that in recent years I cannot, and some irreplaceble bolts on expensive parts have been wrecked. It puts a crimp in your riding schedule. I'd much rather just get the bike put together reliably - so it won't loosen and it won't break. Correct torque specs are intended to get you into that ballpark.

[RBW] Re: V.O City/Touring Pedal Vs. Gripking
Sorry for dragging this out, everyone. I just remembered to mention that when you are tightening the bearing cone, you want to position it so that it doesn't cause friction. However, you don't want it loose to the point where there is play along the axle. If it's too loose, the pedal cage will jiggle along the axle. Note, too, that when you tighten the retaining nut, the bearing cone may tighten just a bit more. So, it's a little process of finding the right position for the bearing cone so that when you tighten the retaining nut, you don't feel friction, and the pedal doesn't have any play along the axle. Whew. Okay, I'm done on this, I promise :) Lee SF, CA On May 23, 7:03 am, Lee leec...@gmail.com wrote: On May 22, 1:46 pm, Mike S mikeshalj...@gmail.com wrote: that they are such a sweet pedal, despite the flaws.

[RBW] Atlantis on Mt Figueroa, Santa Ynez Valley

My buddy Norm's computer keeps track of elevation gain had 4,400' at the summit. It's really high quality riding. There is one stretch for a couple of miles that's dirt but it's well maintained. We were passed by a group on carbon race bikes. The lead guy caught me as I was puttering along on the dirt and was quite friendly. They had their own support car following them. The Atlantis with it's really low gearing was perfect for the climbs and I wouldn't have wanted to do the descents without great brakes. We took about 5-1/2 hours to do it and the people at Dr J's bike shop in Solvang quoted some sub 3 hour times for training rides. dougP -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Decision Potential
Hi! I've an important decision to make: 62cm Hunqapillar or a (second) 60cm Hillborne? At least, I *may* have that decision to make. No amount of measuring will actually let me *know* if I can actually straddle the Hunqapillar. I have a nominal 90cm PBH. All the other numbers seem reasonable to me. So it is *possible* that I *might* be comfortable on one. I don't know. So... if there's a 62cm Hunqapillar owner in the Chicago area (generously defined) who'd be willing to let me throw a leg over their Hunqapillar, I would greatly appreciate it. I wouldn't need the wheels to roll, let alone to actually ride it. Just to straddle it to see where the top tube lives. It'd be fantastic if it proved appropriate. But it'd still be great to *know* if it didn't. It would eliminate any down-the-road missed-opportunity regrets. Much as I love love love my Hillborne, I do feel slightly odd about buying two identical bikes. And I don't dismiss the allure of the Fatter Tire and Rougher Trail and Even Heavier Load. Please e-mail me offline if you're willing to let me check it out. I'll come directly to you or meet you anywhere neutral and convenient for you. We could arrange it with all the notice you need. Obviously, weekends or evenings would be great but I'm willing to consider pretty much any time. I'm hoping (but not committed to) make my choice (if I actually have one) in July. But I'm flexible. Thanks for reading, let alone considering, my request! And feel free to fill this thread online with opinions/insights/experiences of having two identical bikes or multiple RBW bikes or comparisons/contrasts between Hillborne-like and Hunqapillar-like bikes.

[RBW] Re: Decision Potential
How 'bout a 60cm Bombadil?If not, and you can't find a local Hunqapillar to try, consider that 2cm is not much difference at all.But, one test would be to straddle your SH, grab the bars in one hand and the seat in the other, and lift; then have someone take a look at how high the wheels come off the ground. If you have an inch or two of clearance, the HP should work. Anyway good luck with the choices. -Matt On May 23, 7:28 pm, Thomas Lynn Skean thomaslynnsk...@comcast.net wrote: Hi!

Hey Darin, I've been cycling for about 17yrs and it's really only been in the last 4 that I've started working on my bikes. I can't say that I always enjoy it but I've saved myself so many trips to the bike shop and understand my bikes and their/my needs a lot better. I was talking with a friend today about wheel building. Hopefully later this year I'll tackle that. I've been putting it off for too long. I'm sure you'll do fine. I use the Park manuel but I've also found the videos posted my Rivendell on Youtube helpful at times. --mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Inquiry re Sagging Selle AnAtomica
After just a few rides on a brand-new Selle Anatomica, it looks like our old mule (Gladys) with a deeply swayed back. The manufacturer's website seems to say, don't worry about the way this looks, just tighten it up a bit at a time until it's comfortable. I'm willing to follow the manufacturer's advice, but i'm pretty certain I've never seen a leather saddle sag and splay like this anytime in the last 30+ years of riding Ideales and Brooks. Moreover, I have what is supposed to be the identical saddle (different color) on my Roadeo, and have not had any sagging at all. Anyone else experience this with the Anatomicas, or have words of advice/wisdom? FWIW, I'm a Clyde and this is their Clyde model, ostensibly. thanks.

My S.A. stretched over 3 months of riding until I had the tension bolt extended to its maximum, at which point it stabilized. (I weigh 220 fwiw).
