[RBW] Re: Wet 300k

[stonehog]

This was my 2nd 300k.  It went better than the first one, so I'm getting 
used to these rides?  I really enjoyed the company on the sections I was 
riding with others.  I also enjoy the long reflective time in the saddle. 
 I'm going to try to do a full series this year.  We'll see how it works 
out.  I need to start doing some intervals to get my times down a bit, but 
I feel like the bike is fairly dialed in for now.  I definitely want to do 
the 3 volcanoes ride!  I need to get in the mountains as I've done mostly 
rides around Seattle and Bellingham so far.

Here's a short write up on the weekend's 
brevet: http://stonehog.com/2014/04/02/bahn-mi-brevet/

 Brian, congrats on the finish. Was this your first 300k? I know I've said 
 this before here but I'll just repeat it. The 300k is probably my favorite 
 brevet length. Sure, it's hard, I've had my moments on 300ks, but 
 ultimately, it's just a nice long day in the saddle and depending on speed 
 and time of year, can be completed without riding at night. 

  
 As for Noodles and cloth tape--yup, that's a winning combination. I 
 recently swapped out my 48cm Noodles for 46s on my LHT and regret it. I'm 
 too lazy to re-swap them. The 48s will likely go on a bike project I'm 
 contemplating. 

 Are you going to do a full SR series? If you get a chance, look at the 
 route for SIR's 3 Volcanos 300k. That looks like a dream route. I've ridden 
 all the roads, just not in a day.

[RBW] wtt: my Schwalbe Marathon 650b tires for your Nifty Swifty 650b

[islaysteve]

Eric, I have a pair of Nifties purchased in 2011 and replaced the same year 
with less than 100 miles on them.  Nothing wrong, I just got a good deal on 
Pari-Motos and wanted to try them.  Stored inside since 2011.  I'm not 
interested in the Schwalbes, but what about $45 plus actual shipping cost for 
the pair?  Please reply to alkiremx(five) at verizon dot net, if you are 
interested.  Thanks.

35 years of cycling, an that includes Ultegra SIS.

[Ron Mc]

I ran a Shimano 600EX on 5-8-speed friction applications and really loved 
it.  When I widened my rear, I found a NOS Cyclone GT.  It's in a spanish 
cedar cigar box in my garage now - Many miles, but still works great.  I 
had it on my Moser before I found a Campy Chorus.  At 190g, the Arabesque 
is lighter than anything except the carbon Campys, and then only 10g 
heavier.

Re: [RBW] Re: Introduction and Sam Hillborne / AHH Sizing Advice

[Matt Lynch]

Avery,  

Something I did that you may want to consider is converting one of your bar 
end shifter sets to stem shifters.  That way, when you change handlebars 
you don't need to mess with the shifters at all.  For example, so far I 
have Noodles and a Surly Open Bar for my Hillborne.  Each setup has its own 
brake levers, cables and tape/grips; ready to go.  If I want to switch 
between cockpits it's a simple lift-n-lay.  All I have to do is reconnect 
the brakes.  There's no cable/cable housing waste and no re-taping,  This 
approach was particularly suitable to these two setups because they each 
required different brake levers (i.e. MTB vs. Road).  This may seem be a 
more expensive approach since each setup requires its own stem, but I've 
found that each handlebar change requires it's own unique stem size 
anyway.  I think it's better used this way than just letting it sit in a 
drawer.  FYI - If you don't have a stem shifter mount RBW sells a sharp 
looking unit.

RE: [RBW] Berthoud Saddles

[Allingham II, Thomas J]

I have had a Berthoud touring saddle on my Homer for nearly 3 years.  I think 
it's extremely comfortable with drop bars at approximately saddle height.  As 
others have said, it does not stretch out like the non-Select Brooks saddles - 
in my experience, the Berthoud and the Brooks Select saddles break in 
similarly.  One thing about the Berthouds - the proprietary 2.5 mm Allen head 
bolt/washer combos that attach the leather to the frame (the Berthoud 
equivalent of the Brooks rivets) can  come unscrewed.  They need to be checked 
periodically.  Maybe a little Loctite would solve the problem, but I'm too lazy 
to try it, I just tighten them up from time to time.

Also, as others have said, the Berthouds have a mount for a Berthoud Klik-Fix 
saddlebag connector, which is an extremely convenient and easy on/off way to 
mount a Berthoud saddlebag.  I use it on my Hilsen, and really like it; bag 
comes off in a second with the push of one button on the mount.  You can see 
the Klik-Fix mount between my Berthoud small saddlebag and the Berthoud saddle 
here:  
https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/9019678419/in/set-72157627914355388/

Finally, someone mentioned a concern about the load capacity if you hang a 
saddlebag from the loop-equivalents that are molded into the plastic frame.  I 
have hung a pretty heavily loaded Medium Saddlesack off those loops, with no 
problems.  The plastic is described as very high strength in Berthoud's 
marketing materials (for what that's worth).

Oh, and at least to my taste, the Berthoud saddles are gorgeous.

Anyone here have experience with Berthoud Saddles? From what I can tell they 
are thicker, better quality, and more comfortable than Brooks are, sounding 
like what people say of Brooks from 30 years ago. Boulder cycles also has a 6 
month saddle guarantee, which is attractive.

[Joe Bernard]

I've used various silver shortcage Shimano derailers from the mid-90's 
onward which work well, look nice, and can be had for not too much money 
(as long as you avoid new-in-package from crazy people who think they're 
vintage and rare). A search for Shimano 9-speed road will bring up a 
good selection.

FS: A very nice 27 wheelset

- Campy NR 36 hole hubs that came on my first real bike and are vintage 
1971, with straight quick release levers, smooth bearings
- Rims are Super Champion Gentleman 81 rims running perfectly true, minimal 
sidewall wear
- 14 gauge DT stainless spokes
- Built for me by Jim Langley himself, including his Built Tough stickers
- includes a 13-21 Suntour 6spd FW
- includes Specialized 27x1 Turbo S tires, but they're so old that they 
are probably not good for much more than protecting the rims during 
shipping. (They do hold air.)

- A bit dirty from being in storage for many years.

$200 firm, plus shipping.
SF Bay Area meet up preferred.  I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains and work in 
Scotts Valley. 

Photos possible for serious buyers.  Please reply off-list.


Thanks for reading...

[RBW] Ideal AHH Wheelset

[Michael Fleischman]

Hello All,

My name is Michael and I am new to the group and from Indianapolis. 

I recently bought an A Homer Hilsen from Dick at the Country Bike Shop in 
Ohio.  I am considering switching over my custom wheelset from my touring 
ride to the AHH.  My custom wheelset is a Phil Wood Cassette hub laced to a 
Mavic a719 rim and up front I have a Schmidt SON hub laced to a Mavic 
a719.  The AHH came with a stock wheelset - Shimano LX hubs.  I think want 
to have dyname lighting on the AHH and want to have my Phil Hub on back, 
but want to run this change past the bunch.

Will I be giving anything up (speed, handling, feel, ect) by switching out 
the current wheel set?  Is the Mavic a719 to much of a touring rim for the 
AHH?  The bike came with Jack Browns and I think I will switch those over 
to my custom wheelset on the AHH if I do make the swap.

Thoughts?

 Will I be giving anything up (speed, handling, feel, ect) by switching out 
 the current wheel set?  Is the Mavic a719 too much of a touring rim for the 
 AHH?  The bike came with Jack Browns and I think I will switch those over 
 to my custom wheelset on the AHH if I do make the swap.

 Thoughts?

Small potatoes.

I run dyads and have a schmidt on the front wheel; I think they're
excellent bulletproof rims. And you can always turn off your light if you
want :)

I went on a slightly longer ride on the barlow pass tires, and oh my, they
sing!

[RBW] Re: Ideal AHH Wheelset

[IanA]

The A719 is a high-end rim not heavy - just not light-weight.  The huge 
benefit of dynamo lighting makes the front wheel swap an excellent idea 
(assuming the bicycle would be ridden at night).  The only consideration 
for the rear wheel is if the Phil hub is compatible with your current 
gearing set-up.  No reason not to have the current LX on the rear and the 
dynamo wheel up front.

Re: [RBW] Ideal AHH Wheelset

[Patrick Moore]

Michael: good tires will make a far greater differnce in performance and
feel than differences in wheels, which, if minimally decent in bearings
and rim weight, will make very little difference by comparison.

The Phil rear and SON front sound top of the line acceptable to me.

One of mine did that, and I blue-locktited it and nothing's ever come

Also, as others have said, the Berthouds have a mount for a Berthoud 
Klik-Fix saddlebag connector, which is an extremely convenient and 
easy on/off way to mount a Berthoud saddlebag.  I use it on my Hilsen, 
and really like it; bag comes off in a second with the push of one

plastic frame.  I have hung a pretty heavily loaded Medium Saddlesack 
off those loops, with no problems.  The plastic is described as very 
high strength in Berthoud's marketing materials (for what that's worth).




I've seen how Tom Allingham loads a seat bag.  When he says heavily

 Hi All,
 
 I just switched out my last favorite rubber: Continental Cyclecross Speed 
 700-42C's that I bot from Riv last year --- great ride and good for both 
 smooth and gravel as well as mud and freezing surfaces (actually measured 
 38mm on Mavic A319 rims at approx 60 lbs pressure).
 
 I now am running the Compass Barlow Pass 700-38 extralight tan sidewalls. 
 They measure 37.7mm at 45 lbs on the front and 37.8 at 55 lbs on the rear - 
 on Mavic A319 wheels ( awesomely built by Jude at Sugar Wheelworks in PDX).
 
 Have only run errands around town but they feel great - cushy, track 
 beautifully (easy no hands riding) and seem to grip well in the usual PDX wet.
 
 Have just got out of the hosp after a bout with pneumonia so I haven't been 
 able to do any long rides but will report back when I put on some miles. 
 
 Here are some pics:

 Good looking Homer on eBay but I didn't see 3 water bottle mounts so I

Re: [RBW] Re: Quickbeam water bottle braze-on disappearance act

[Shaun Meehan]

I had that happen on an old Trek frame that I had. I took an AVK threaded
insert and kludged the installation of it with a bolt and a stack of
washers. Once installed, it held fine. It looked kind of ugly but you
couldn't see it when the cage was installed anyway.

 For you experienced dirt drop bar folks, what stem do you run (if possible 
 in contrast with an Albatross bar)? I have the Tallux 12 cm with my Albas

True, some of the pictures of my orange QuickBeam look red, too. I guess 
the decals rubbed off, though. Even my 66cm 'Beam shows its decals down to 
that area of the downtube.

[RBW] FS: Showers Pass Elite 2.0, mens, black, size Large, and Showers Pass hood

[eflayer]

A great rain jacket. Showers Pass Elite 2.0, mens, black, size Large, and 
Showers Pass hood that velcros onto jacket. This jacket is in very nice 
condition with no rips or tears or visible marks. All zippers are in top 
condition and the jacket is clean and maybe has been hand washed 2 or 3 
times. Material is still sturdy and does not feel at all thinned out due to 
being washed and worn a zillion times.

I live in CA so not too much rain cycling here so jacket worn mostly on a 
few multiple day tours outside the country.
Check my perfect feedback and ask as many questions as you need to make an 
informed buying decision.
 
$110 shipped.

[RBW] Mt.Diablo Overnight/Tour De California Race watching shindig. April 12-13

[Manuel Acosta]

Plan is to do a long loop around the backside of Diablo through Morgan 
territory .
Leave late 4ish pm from Rivendell HQ. Mostly road, till we get to the top 
of Morgan territory  Road.

https://goo.gl/maps/KAzty

Pretty sure this connects back to Devil's elbow. I was told it didn't. This 
ride is to see if it does.

Bring water and food for the next day. Don't know where we would need to 
fill up on Marsh Creek road. 
Maybe I'll bring a filter. 

Expect some climbing.
Then waiting a lot for 10 seconds of riding.

Should be fun

See ya there.

Manny
