[RBW] Heron FS in SoCal

[cyclotourist]

Looks like a basic nice bike. Not sure I would pay for a Joe Bell paint job
and have it be flat black, but to each his own.

Re: [RBW] Re: Hupe or Fender for saddlebag support (if it rides too low)?

[Robert Barr]

Keith,

I bought a Wire Guard for the same reason you list. There was the potential
for some cable rub on the small Saddlesack that I use on my Hunq. A top
rack seemed overkill, and the Hupe didn't look like it would fit a small
Saddlesack.  I have only used the wire guard for 3 days, but I think it was
the right choice. I don't see it rubbing the frame, whereas from the
pictures I have seen it is easy to imagine the Hupe rubbing.

[RBW] Re: WTB: Periscopa or 80mm Dirt Drop Stem

[jar351]

Whoa nelly! From the looks of it a Periscopa will get my bars considerably 
higher than they are now and a little further back. I hadn't realized how tall 
that thing was until now. Lovely. Thanks so much, Erl, for sharing about your 
experience. On a related note, have you found the B17 (?) saddle adequate for 
this setup? Not too narrow or too stiff for all that weight? I'm thinking I'll 
want to go with something sprung, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

 Interested but I think I'm going to get a custom in a few more years. I
 have a few Rivs to keep me busy at the moment!

[RBW] Re: WTB: Periscopa or 80mm Dirt Drop Stem

[WETH]

I have equipped an old Motobecane with a periscopa stem and Albatross bars. 
 I rode the set-up two days ago for about 15 miles and found it quite 
comfortable.  I did have to move my hand position forward, toward the stem, 
on the Albatross bars, otherwise the handling was a bit twitchy.  That is 
most likely an issue related to the Motobecane.  The handling improved when 
I had more weight further forward on the bar, right before the curve.  I 
suppose that means I really should be using a longer stem.  (However, it is 
nice to have extra grip space closer to my body for when I want to sit up 
more and precise handling is not an issue.)  I did not experience any elbow 
pain on my ride, but then I never have from riding.  I did notice a bit of 
soreness in my biceps toward the end of the ride, not a bad thing, just 
something new.  Overall the setup was quite comfortable both leisurely 
riding a paved trail and riding more quickly on the road.  Here is a photo 
of my set-up in the hope it gives you a sense of what the periscopa bar 
might do for your set-up.


There are a few more photos of the set-up 
here: 
http://erlhouston.smugmug.com/Portfolio/Cyling/Motobecane-Super-Mirage/28440802_jtmxgv

Like you I am still experimenting a bit, hence the green grips which are 
really sections of old garden hose and duct tape.  I am trying to decide 
how much padding I want on the bars.  Eventually I will wrap everything 
with some maroon Newbaums bar tape from Rivendell.

Safe cycling,
Erl

[RBW] Re: Legolas!

[Joe Bernard]

It can be ordered with a threaded steerer. The Legolas is based on Mark's 
custom cross Rivs, which use threadless, but it can be ordered either way, 
same as the Roadeo.
 
Also noted in the latest email is that the Glorius and Wilbury with the 
insanely-fancy lugs can still be ceated. *That*..is a tempting offer..

Re: [RBW] All Rounder with Midge bar UPDATE

I love the yellow. In my opinion, the brighter colors really bring out the 
details in a Rivendell frame. Your bike reminds me that I need a 
yellow/gold/butterscotch Riv one day. :-)

[RBW] Re: WTT Nitto Moustache bars for Albatross Bars

I like the fact that it appears the Manny's auto-correct turned "bar-none" 
into "barn-on".  What the hell is a "barn-on"?  Is that what happens on 
farms?

[RBW] WTB: Periscopa or 80mm Dirt Drop Stem

[jar351]

Hi, folks. Has anyone got an old Periscopa lying in the old parts bin?

 I've got my town/touring bike set up with Soma Oxford bars (very like 
Albratrosses) and a Kalloy Dirt Drop 100mm stem (Nitto DD copy), and I'm 
not quite getting the laid-back position that I'm going for. Previously, 
I'd been using a 110mm Technomic that had me too far forward and a little 
lower than I'd prefer. I stuck with it for 9 months--god knows why--despite 
lingering elbow pain after any ride longer than 20 minutes. I've only had 
the Kalloy DD on for a couple of days but already I'm pretty sure it 
represents a sizable improvement. It places the bars about 2.5cm higher and 
1.5 cm back from where they were with the Technomic, allowing me to lean 
forward less and take weight off my hands. Essentially, I'd like to take 
that a step further with a Periscopa, which should get the bars a little 
further back and maybe even a smidgeon higher. Failing that, I'd take an 
80mm DD and use it with a shim.

This is an admittedly lousy pic that more or less shows what my current 
setup looks like:



And here's another one that shows how I had things until just recently:




Even if you haven't got the part I'm looking for, any thoughts on the 
ergonomics of an upright setup would be greatly appreciated. The funny 
thing is that I get worse elbow pain after riding a semi-upright setup 
(stem 1" higher than saddle, hands just behind stem) than I do after riding 
a drop-bar setup (stem level with saddle, hands forward of stem on hoods). 
I can only surmise that it has more to do with the angles of my elbows and 
the way force is transmitted through them than the amount of weight that I 
have on my hands.

[RBW] Re: NYC bike shops and rentals

[Evan Jahn]

The Hub and Waterfront Bikes are both great for rentals.  The Hub is also 
one of the city's better shops for practical city bikes and is worth a 
visit:

http://www.hubcycles.com/
http://www.bikeshopny.com/

Other interesting shops to check out:

http://www.redlanternbicycles.com/
http://www.adelineadeline.com/
http://bicyclerenaissance.com/
http://www.bikecult.com//works/index.html

I learned from a blug post a while bike that Grant visited 
http://www.bikeshopny.com/ and http://www.bikecult.com//works/index.html on 
his book tour.  The latter is a Riv dealer, too, I believe.

[RBW] Re: NYC bike shops and rentals

[Kai Vierstra]

I can't say I know much about bike rental in the city,  Bike and Roll seems 
like it does a brisk business and they have a lot of locations.  As for 
shops, I like the folks at NYC Velo.  Their shop's not really interesting 
outside of a normal well stocked bike shop but their repair staff is nice 
and well informed.  They might know more about your rental options.

Re: [RBW] Re: Hupe or Fender for saddlebag support (if it rides too low)?

Actually look on the website, both the Bagman and SQR are rated to 20kg.

 For me the problem was that if the saddlebag was anything but full... 
 ie if the hupe was un-weighted... the hupe tended to move around and 
 scratch the seat stays. 
 I tried using zip ties to secure it without success. I think if I 
 wanted to get another saddlebag support, I would go with something more 
 like a "real" rack.

Welcome Jack. Hope to see photos of your bike soon. I'm a new owner too; 
just got my Hillborne last month.

Welcome to the fold! No review or related story does as well as the 
conversations in preparation or the arrival that box, not to speak of the
