[RBW] Re: Solo s240- Point Reyes
eli, Heres the route give or take a had full of missed turns. DON'T MISS the turn on the bike path by passing some short section of Sir Francis Drakes. Super cool bike path under some nice shaded trees. Also theres a shorter, faster and steeper way to get to Limantor Road via Drakes Summit Road. Toping around a 20% grade it's an interesting shortcut. Also a nicer way of getting to Coastal Camp is taking the coastal trial. The trial head is near the hostel there.

Re: [RBW] Re: Was gonna buy a Riv but didnt...
Don't know if I talked about it much here, but I do like to test new ideas in bikes before jumping in. I'm not generally conservative, but I am an engineer, and tend to approach complex concepts a piece at a time. Chunk it up, then solve the chunks. There are always several excellent examples of finished bikes at all ends of the spectrum. In trail it's (among others) Riv versus Boxdog or Boulder. Plus at the time, I was lusting for a Boxdog Pelican or Boulder, and just recently back into a job, working. The first gen Pelican had geometry nearly identical to my Trek 610 except for a little lower BB and the fork rake. Tube lengths and main angles were the same. Why not just make the change? But part of the fallout due ot the delay is that I really enjoy riding my Mondonico, and think maybe instead I should spend $$ on a new go-fast, like a Mondonico EL-OS, or a Roadeo.

[RBW] Re: Paul High Flange Hubs on a SO / QB ?
Have no experience with the quickbeam / SO, but... as long as the crank and freewheel are within 5mm of each other, you should be fine. If you're willing to switch to a 110 BB (which would put you at 44 chainline ) or a 113 (=47 chainline), you would be set (I doubt you'd notice the difference with the 3mm disconnect). However, if you wanted to keep the 107 BB, you could always screw the freewheel onto the fixed side, which would put you 3mm off from the chainring and well within the safety zone. FWIW, I think the Paul hubs are the best fixed hubs I've used, and I've used a lot. Light, well-designed (except their annoying, non- rejection of the 42mm chainline), durable and good looking! -Dan On Jul 23, 9:50 am, jandrews_nyc jasonaschwa...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, Does anyone have experience using the PAUL hubs on a Quickbeam or Simpleone?

what you need is a nitto q/r saddlebag grip for your medium saddle sack. i have this and it anchors the bag further back at the top, so that it sits plenty far back on my nitto r14 top rack. i also like the q/r, as i use this for commuting and like to bring my bag inside when i shop. for what its worth, i ride a 59 cm blériot. I've used a similar set-up for a good while, mostly with a 57 Blériot, except I had it sitting on a Mark's rack on the rear.

[RBW] Re: Was gonna buy a Riv but didnt...
Hi Joe, I had a GT3, too! A blue one. Then I sold it, and got an ICE S. Then sold that, and got a Catrike Road. Notice the somewhat disturbing pattern? Buy-Sell, Buy-Sell, Buy-Sell. But, I have settled down, and have had my Catrike for the past 5 years. In retrospect, the GT3 was still the best trike, overall, of the three. I agree- everyone should try one. They're a blast. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Rivendell Riders Brooks Saddle....?
Liesl, I'd like to piggy-back on your last comment, and add that I would also JUMP at the chance to get a Rivendell Rider B17! I'd bet that there'd be plenty of Riv owners who would belly up to the bar to buy one! Grant? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Google Rivendell Brooks. There was one on Grand Rapids Craigslist. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Was gonna buy a Riv but didnt...
I sold my Romulus to convert to recumbents. Bought a couple of 2-wheelers, then a trike, sold the 2-wheel bents, now resupplying with a few Craigslist upright bikes, and thinking about getting a Hunqapillar or Sam. I'm keeping the trike!

[RBW] Headset Issue
Just had the headset on my Sam adjusted at the LBS after discovering the upper threaded race was loose. The cable hanger seems to have acted as a lever on the race and worked it loose. The lock nut was still tight. I took it home after adjustment without riding it and discovered the steering was squirrelly. I took the front trunk bag off the rack and things improved some but it still felt dodgy Not the Sam I'm used to. Steering is jumpy in corners and I don't feel comfortable taking my hands off the bar. I've lifted the wheel off the ground to observe whether the wheel falls over easily. It hesitates slightly at the straight ahead position then falls over. When I rotate the steering by hand I can feel it catch in both directions at short intervals. Before I get too excited about this does it sound like its just too tight and needs to be re-adjusted? Is the squirrelly steering a symptom of an overly tight headset? I've read about indexing, but I can't imagine its indexed after only 1500 miles. D.G. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Headset Issue
Too tight. If it only indexed at the straight-ahead position, you'd probably have a bigger problem, but tight all the way through the range of motion is a tight headset. If you have the wrenches, back off the locknut, loosen the headset cup a quarter turn, then hold that baby steady while you tighten the locknut back down. Keep doing this until the steering frees up. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
