[RBW] Re: Does your Brooks B17 look a little tilted and twisted from behind?

2012-08-12 Thread Joe K
I would agree with Eric that it's probably good to check the
clamps...since the saddle is pretty new.  Or maybe this is just part
of the variability of new leather saddles.

Mine has a definite waver to it, but it's over 10 years old...and I
have to figure that  one butt cheek is stressing it more than the
other!

2012-08-12 Thread Joe Bernard
It's normal. Brookses are rarely perfectly symmetrical to start with, and 
the shape changes as it breaks in. Mine tend to move to the left a bit over 
time..i think my left leg is a bit shorter than the right.

[RBW] Nice bunch here.

2012-08-12 Thread lungimsam
Just wanted to say that you all seem to be very friendly and kind here.
 
Another biking forum I frequent can get a little rough. Not everyone is so 
nice. Bums me out. Sometimes I feel like I wanna cringe a little before 
reading responses over there.
 
So it is really nice to have some nice friendly chats here with you all. 
Thanks for making this such a welcoming place.

I currently run Pasela TG's 700 x 37 and they are a good fit for that bike 
but a little skinny.
I've also run it with Schwalbe Dureme 50's.  It's a tight squeeze but 
doable.
So, 
a 40mm Dureme or Supreme is ideal.

FWIW and future inquiries, when I had a 56cm Atlantis with a TA Zephyr

[RBW] Seattle S24O group trip, could be awesome

2012-08-12 Thread Scot Brooks
Judging by the number of people who turned up to Grant's talk at Free 
Range, I'm thinking there are plenty of ya'll who'd be into a weekend 
camping trip. Now that the weather is somewhat predictable, I say we go for 
it. Any thoughts on dates and destinations? Fay Bainbridge is nice, and 
only about 6 miles from the ferry dock on the island. Plenty of other 
choices I'm sure. Let the planning begin!

"If you believe that Olympic glory makes a nation great, just remember the USSR
This is Peter Hitchens’ Mail on Sunday column

It seems that you can now be arrested for not smiling when an Olympic
event is taking place. So I had better watch out in case I am wrestled
to the ground and carted off by some Compulsory Happiness snatch
squad.

For I have not been smiling nearly enough. I have watched two or three
races on the TV.

There is still something thrilling in a raw contest among men and
women stretched to the uttermost, in which there can be only one
winner.

It is refreshingly unlike modern Britain, where the very idea that
there must be losers for there to be winners is banned from most
schools, and denied by our political leaders.

But I can summon up little interest in all the other alleged sports,
dancing animals, underwater basketball, bikini display or whatever
they are. As a lifelong cyclist, I find myself startlingly unmoved by
Olympic cycling.

It is too technological, too dependent on machines and airlocks.

The riders look like aliens in their special outfits.

But good luck to you if you have enjoyed it. I am happy for you,
provided I’m allowed to differ from you. The trouble is, I’m not sure
I am.

>From the moment these Olympics started, there’s been a strong smell of
New Labour totalitarianism.

Those who have dared to say they didn’t like the Opening Ceremony have
been lectured and made to feel isolated.

The BBC even transmitted an astonishing personal attack on me in which
I was misrepresented (they have since apologised, an event as rare as
a Lottery win, but alas the apology is nothing like good enough).

Now someone called Armando Iannucci, who is famous for something, has
called me a ‘scribbling cynic’ and proclaimed that I and those like me
‘took a hell of a beating’.

I think this is because the British team has won a lot of medals, and
the Opening Ceremony has been much praised.

I can’t see why an Olympic opening ceremony should have any politics
in it at all. But remember how deeply the Blairite Cosa Nostra was
involved in securing the Olympics for London at all costs, and how
their heirs, the Cameron Tories, have taken up the baton.

Why? I think the pitiful failure of the Millennium Dome rankled badly
with the Blairites. They were and are revolutionaries. They had long
hoped to use the new century to proclaim Year One of their nasty,
tatty, multicultural, anti-Christian New Britain.

Put simply, I think they wanted to undo the magic of the 1953
Coronation Ceremony, with modernist incantations and a censored,
reordered version of our national history.

The Olympics were a second chance, in which a normal love of sport
could be converted into an anti-conservative wave of feeling.

And behold, they have done it. I don’t begrudge the winners their joy,
or the spectators their delight.

But do Olympic medals make a nation great? Was the USSR a great nation
because it won lots of them? Is Jamaica a stable and happy society
because Usain Bolt is a great athlete?
Would you rather have Australia’s thriving economy, or Britain’s medal
tally? And by the way, have Prince William and his wife forgotten that
they are future monarchs of Australia?

In a free country, there is no obvious connection between sporting
achievement and national standing. The truth is that we have used
scarce money to hire coaches, buy equipment and subsidise athletes in
sports where competition is weak.

When all this is over, we will still be broke, disorderly, badly
educated and gravely troubled by the greatest wave of mass immigration
in our history. I cannot see why I should smile about that."

To reply to Jim D's  comment: yes, he makes a career out of permanent 
peevishness -- not always without reason, given what appears to be the sorry 
state of modern Britain. But he is a true and dedicated cyclist who rides to 
get to places--don' think he owns a car--and who regrets the passing of 
Britain's earlier cycling culture.

I have the black Longboards on my daily rider (Salsa Vaya).  While not as 
fancy-looking as Honjos or Berthouds, they look nice enough that I wouldn't pay 
more just aesthetics.

[RBW] Rivish Parts For Sale

2012-08-12 Thread Scott Calhoun
A dead air conditioner, dying water heater, and a kid's college tuition 
have conspired to make me let go of some frames and parts I've been 
collecting and holding onto for bike building projects. My spouse somehow 
feels that cool indoor air and hot water are more important than my bicycle 
projects:)

Before I put the stuff on fleabay, I thought I'd give fellow Riv Owner's 
Bunchers first crack at it. The prices I've listed include shipping to the 
continental U.S. (except where noted). I'm in Tucson, Arizona (so yeah, the 
AC is kinda essential). I also welcome local pickup. I can accept Paypal. 
Sorry about the length of the list. It was more than I thought. Gulp. I'm 
happy to email photos. Just shoot me an email with the item(s) you would 
like pictures of. 

*Framesets*

 

1986 Team Fuji Frameset 52cm. Immaculate condition (9.5/10), blue and 
yellow paint. Chrome fork crown. Lugged and made from Val-Lite 9658 
Quad-butted tubing (I think made by Ishiwata). Includes fluted seatpost, 
headset, and Suntour Sprint Front Derailleur and BB. $170

 

1982 Trek 950 62cm Frameset. Great condition (8/10), original paint, silver 
with blue panels, Columbus SL tubing, Cinelli lugs and Campagnolo dropouts. 
A very small patch of surface rust where the paint is chipped on the fork, 
but could easily be touched up. Includes frame and fork. $300.00

 

1985 Trek 400 (22.5” or 57cm) True Temper Tubing. New mat celeste green 
powdercoat with gold lug-lining. Frame aligned and rear cold-set to 130mm 
spacing. All ready for components. $80.00 plus shipping.

 

Surly Long Haul Trucker 60cm, Truckacinno color. Purchased to build up for 
cross-country touring but never got to it. I will ship it in original box 
with original packing materials. Includes frame, fork, and an installed 
top-of-the-line Cane Creek sealed bearing headset ($120 new). $425.00

 

Velo Orange Rando 61cm. Powder-coated Bengal Silver (I didn’t like the 
stock VO purple blue) never built up. I will ship it in its original box 
and packaging. I have a set of new Velo Orange decals that can send with 
the bike. I paid $145 for the professional powder-coating job. Includes 
frame, fork, and a velo orange front rack (the fork has hourglass braze-ons 
that fit the rack perfectly). $500.00

 

 

*Cranksets*

 

Campagnolo Mirage 172.5 compact (34/50) double crankset. Black, square 
taper, 9 speed, 110bcd with matching Miche English thread 68mm x 110 bottom

original box. $70.00

[RBW] Re: Atlantis triple - Phil BB spindle length

2012-08-12 Thread Stephen S
There is a post from the past on this list talking about bottom brackets 
and the Atlantis frame. 

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rbw-owners-bunch/PLvfFqKpkFQ 

For what if 107mm was working for you going to 113mm will just move 
the chain-rings out. If you need the wider q factor it will be nice. If you 
like a lowish q factor leaving it at 107 is a good idea. 

One of the advantages of the Phil is adjustability. With the cups you can 
adjust the chainline by a few mm.

[RBW] Atlantis triple - Phil BB spindle length

2012-08-12 Thread Mitch Browne
I upgrade the mighty Atlantis / Sugino triple as opportunity permits.

I currently have the Riv recommended 107 Tange ($10 Craigslist)  installed 
which has served me well daily the past few years.

I now have the opportunity to pick up a new 113 Phil.

I was almost certain that in past Riv readers Grant specified a 113 Phil. 
Of course I could not find that recommendation anywhere last night as I 
poured over past issues.

Canvassing the website did not reveal guidance either.

Does anyone recollect this recommendation?

If this is true does anyone have a guess as to why the 3mm difference each 
side between manufacturers for the same bike?

Subject: [RBW] QUICKBEAM FOR SALE

Thanks to our on-(going-on-a-halfa-decade) going depression, I have been 
"thinning my stable" over recent years. I have sold my Heron Touring frame, my 
wierdly-bitted Ritchey Timberwolf, and some other honeys (Boo-Hoo, poor me! ;-) 
). I have, with the same stroke, happily made some kindred souls happy .

The stable is thin. I must now begin on the Harem. thus;

My first-production-run Quickbeam, se llama Guadaloupe! She be 58cm c-t, 
British racing green, made by Panasonic in Japan. "Lupie", as she is known to 
her friends & suitors, is in excellent, well cared for condition. A very small 
amount of decal rub, a little paint loss at the dropouts, that is all I can 
find (thru the misty aura of love, at least).

I am asking $750 including shipping in the CONUS For her frame, fork, headset 
(tange), and bottom bracket (tange or sh'mano)
I will also sell her as pictured (Le Porc Ententame'), sans bags, pump, and 
water bottle cages. Looking  for roundabout 2K. Offers?
Will also discuss other configurations for sale; I still have most of the other 
bits from the original Riv build.

PLEASE PERUSE THE ATTACHED PHOTO.   I got more, ya know

Contact me with questions, offers, and photo requests at

Re: [RBW] SKS Longboard silver/tan/black colors. Have you seen them? How do they look? Nice?

I think my cream looks great. The best compliment was when someone
thought they were painted aluminum fenders.
