[RBW] FS: Canvas Bags.

[David Banzer]

I started making up a batch of standard bags during November/December in 
olive green, mostly to take photographs of these standard models that I 
hope to keep an inventory of. I'm deciding to go with a canvas fabric 
that's a slightly different shade of green, so I need to make up those 
instead to use for photographing, so have a few bags in olive green that I 
made up out of Fairfield Textiles #8 heavy-martexin water-repellent canvas. 
I made these with veg tan leather and with Sunbrella trim, which is a very 
durable trim typically used in boat covers, so really great for outdoor 
use. It sews up nice and looks really clean to me.
Also have a couple other random bags that I have floating around.
All are listed in my webstore: treetop.bigcartel.com
Follow the links to see each bag.
Payment can be made with a debit/credit card or with Paypal.
There is a flat $6 shipping rate per order, and I use USPS Priority mail 
for shipping. Other bike-related items are in my webstore as well.
Local pickup in Chicago, roughly near Lincoln Sqaure, works as well. Just 
kindly go through the order process first - use code LOCAL during checkout 
to take off the shipping charge.
Contact off-list if you can if you have any questions.
Thanks,
David

Re: [RBW] FS Misc, mostly vintage bits; bullmoose, super setback post, pedals, cranks, levers

[Jim Bronson]

is the 5500 crank arm for the right side double or triple?  assume double?
 or is the crankarm indpendent of the crank bolt sockets.

I have a 6503 that's pretty sad looking, would like to replace with a nicer
looking 5500 or 6500.

[RBW] Re: I Bailed Off Flicker

[Cyclofiend Jim]

Indeed - I keep my Flickr subscription partially out of habit.  But, even 
with all the "improvements" it still does a fine job.  Yahoo ownership a 
minus.  All the folks who I've been there with for the past (mumble-mumble) 
years a significant plus.  Flickr has become the old bike shop on the back 
street where the good stuff is, while Instagram is on the main square and 
all the cool kids hang out there. I like both, but they are different.

There have been some changes to google photos, with hints of automatic 
uploading and such (all of which using the Google+ tools, it sounds like). 
 Since so much of my photo-taking is via the phone, it does seem to be an 
option. 

Playing with IFTTT for some clients, and we got photos moving and sharing 
well between dropbox folders and flickr, instagram and others.  That's a 
helpful tool, if only for giving you a backup archive for images.  

I've also seen some tools for migrating from Flickr, most of which seem 
pretty manual.  But the functionality is there within Flickr to archive all 
of your images locally - and then you can repost elsewhere.

[RBW] Re: Rust-proofing your frames

[William deRosset]

Dear Mark,

Another option:

LPS 3  is commonly used in 
marine environments. It is available in Canada, at your local marina or 
possibly at your local hardware store. I got a spray can (close to a 
lifetime supply for me) at Ace Hardware. It feels pretty similar to the 
cosmoline+ carrier Framesaver.
  

Best,

Re: [RBW] Re: Rust-proofing your frames

Hi Mark...I would definitely spray something in your frame...we've used 
Boeshield and LPS3 and I've had my frames sprayed a couple of times over 
the years. I suspect your Atlantis was initially treated with Boeshield or 
LPS3 or some such, but the treatment does  need to be periodically 
repeated. Lee Valley used to sell a really good lubricant,  with , I think, 
lanolin as an ingredient but I don't see it there

[RBW] Re: FS: HERON Touring 55cm complete build

[Joe Bernard]

Somebody really needs to buy this bike..it's a great frame with cool late-'90s 
Riv Catalogue parts. I had a Heron Road which turned out to be a smidge too big 
for me (54cm), but it had a magical ride, almost like there was a little 
electric motor hidden somewhere in those 531 tubes. And the blue-ish green 
color is amazing in the sun. Buy it now, operators are standing by!

Re: [RBW] Re: San Marcos or Straggler 650B?

[s...@austin.utexas.edu]

Thanks for the input, all. Very helpful. Thinking of pulling the trigger on a 
SM frameset and building one up. Or there seem to be a couple of 51cm completes 
on eBay right now. All reviews so far have been positive. Hoping I can 
replicate the feel of my Jones bars with some albatross/stache with a dirt drop 
stem. Still want discs but sounds like side/centerpull will be good enough for 
its use. Maybe someday Grant will drink the disc kool aid. That new segmented 
Appaloosa fork would look great designed for discs.

Re: [RBW] Re: San Marcos or Straggler 650B?

[cyclotourist]

My only thought on discs, is that stock/mass-produced bikes with discs
have VERY stiff forks. I've ridden my Salsa La Cruz back to back with
my Riv custom, same 40mm MSO tires, and WOW, what a difference in
compliance between the two. The La Cruz is like riding a jack hammer.
Riv is totally plush. YMMV of course, and discs are great IMHO, but
generic disc forks you would find on any non-custom are really
uncomfortable.

[RBW] FS: More stuff, road levers, Silver one-at-a-time bar-end

[Joe Bernard]

Trying to clear out extraneous bits I'm not using.

Cane Creek for v-brakes, same RL520 model number as the Tektros I just 
sold, but priced higher new so there must be more aluminum in there 
somewhere. Silver, some scratches, nice hoods, good for the bike you lean 
against walls without a care, $15 shipped.

Single left-side Silver shifter, single Shimano pod with a couple minor 
scratches. Works well as a rear-right shifter with Grant's preferred 
'swapped sides' mounting for Silver bar-ends. If you're a one-at-a-time 
hipster, shift the rear with a Silver! $30 shipped.

Unsolicited product endorsement: I bought one of the basket bags, and

Great addition to a Wald basket!

[RBW] Re: Tuning SunRace Thumbies

[Bill Lindsay]

If you determine that the clicks are forcing you to put the shifter in a 
bad intermediate position, I will point out that I've confirmed that a 
Silver Downtube shifter will work on the Sun Race thumbie base.  That means 
you could experiment with a "real" friction shifter on that base to see if 
you get better results.

[RBW] Re: FS: HERON Touring 55cm complete build

[William deRosset]

Hi, all,

A side note, and unfortunately a fair amount of thread drift, but after a 
decade of tinkering around with my bike fit and a pile of different bikes, 
I had my René Herse built back in 2008/9. Mike Kone started with a blank 
sheet of paper, and he and I worked from various directions (historical; 
personal history and experience; uses for the bike; aesthetics) to find the 
very best solution for me (and this work eventually influenced some of his 
commercial machines, though those are very much his bikes). Its fit 
parameters turned out identical to... the 56 Heron Road (the front end is a 
little different to accommodate a dedicated front loading geometry) or the 
55 Heron Touring...  I have a 55 Heron Touring (on permanent loan to my 
brother), and it fit beautifully with a long-ish stem. These really are 
undersung, special machines, and they get a lot just right. 

If I hadn't gotten bit fairly hard by the rando-bug and found integrated 
bikes particularly convivial for that purpose, I'd probably have hunted 
down a Heron Road (in Silver, so that I could differentiate between my 
machines), and called off the search for marginal improvements. I ended up 
with a few machines that fit my use-cases better than the Herons did (and I 
turn out to really love a lighter tube spec than they offer), but that 
doesn't take away their versatility, durability, and excellent low-key road 
manners. They're great bikes, and only one of my machines wins out over 
these "blue collar" machines aesthetically.

Best Regards,

Will

[RBW] Re: Ordered another Riv

[JohnS]

I still have my '82 Stump Jumper. The chain stays are pretty long a 18.5 
inches, which allows it to pass the fist between the seat tube and tire 
test. The top tube is really long too at 23.75 inches. I currently have it 
set up as a Raleigh Sports inspired city bike, black powdered coat paint, 
full fenders with a reflector and Albatross bars. Still a great riding bike 
after all these years.

Re: [RBW] Re: San Marcos or Straggler 650B?

[Tim Gavin]

My girlfriends SM is a 51 cm 1st generation (pearly blue).

AFAIK, besides the color change (to tiburon blue), the only other changes
from 1st to 2nd generation San Marcos are to the fork: new fork legs with a
more "classic" curve, and mid-fork eyelets, a la Riv.

I don't believe there were any other changes to geometry or clearance
between the generations.


The 650b and 700c San Marcos frames each have different tire clearances.
The 650b fits a wider tire (stated clearance 38 mm) than the 700c (stated
clearance 35 mm).

In fact, the 650b still has pretty generous room with 650 x 38 tires,
enough for 38 + fenders or for a 650 x 42 tire (Hetres at least, which
don't have the extra thick tread of the Fatty Rumpkin).

Cheers,
Tim

Re: [RBW] Re: San Marcos or Straggler 650B?

[Philip Kim]

I don't think there were tire clearance changes persay, but the fork was 
definitely changed. I believe the first version's fork brake offset was 
really weird, which could account for the Fatty Rumps being too tall.

  Boeshield can work and is available in Canada I believe. It creates a dry

Re: [RBW] Re: Rust-proofing your frames

[Mark Reimer]

Ah, I'm familiar with that product. And on that note, can't believe I
forgot about this, I JUST rust treated a 40 year old motorcycle tank. It
was nsty rusty inside. Guess what ate the rust clean off, is dirt
cheap, can be dumped onto the street after, and available everywhere?

White vinegar!

I filled the tank (which was completely lined with rust) with vinegar, and
added a few small sheet metal screws to knock the rust loose when I'd shake
it. I let it sit for about a week, shaking it a few times a day. A week
might have been way more than needed. but the point is, it came out 100%
clean. I then treated it with an epoxy tank liner product to prevent rust
from returning, which I wouldn't ever do on a bike frame, but the vinegar
would certainly be a good rust treatment for inside a rusty bicycle frame.

[RBW] Re: Show me your Garage/Workshop/Cave/Storage Spaces

[Montclair BobbyB]

For years all I wanted was a garage with an automatic door opener, that I 
can to pull into, press a button and be inside my house...Well... after I 
had that for a few years and the novelty had worn off, all I wanted was a 
heated space where I could work on bikes, cars, or anything else, and with 
enough room!.. I finally have that, and it's only 2 small steps away from 
my kitchen.  Hey, cars are tough... they can survive outside or under a 
carport... My cars are not show-worthy... they look just fine with a little 
beausage.  And mowers? rakes? wheelbarrows?... they belong in sheds... NO, 
people... the attached garage is the ultimate man-cave... You can roll big 
equipment in and out, track dirt in, hose it off, and yes, even have heat 
in it (mine has an old wood-stove)... Mine also has 2 huge picture windows, 
a built-in bowling-alley-turned counter running the width of the garage, 
great lighting (a chandelier hung by a hook big enough to hold an engine... 
the guy who built this place was a skilled craftsman).  

ManCave One is now operational... Needs some additional tweaking, but I now 
have piped in stereo music and I'm just about ready to start living out 
here.


 



Peace,
BB

[RBW] Re: Rust-proofing your frames

[drew]

amsoil hdmp is, from what i can tell, the exact same thing as jpw frame 
saver.  it's awesome. boeshield feels watery and runny, but 
amsoil/framesaver sticks and runs the right amount to make you confident 
that its on, and staying on, all surfaces. 

if you are worried about rust that you already have, i had great luck 
refurbishing a rust bucket frame with THIS 

 product. 
i stripped the frame, plugged all holes, filled the frame with the liquid 
for about a day, dumped it out and with it came the rust. then just applied 
amsoil.

[RBW] Rust-proofing your frames

[Mark Reimer]

Today I rode to work in the sloppiest snowy junk in a while. Despite being 
-18C, it was still slush due to all the de-icer on the streets. It sticks 
to my frame like glue and makes me worried about it rusting to pieces. 
Particularly as I was in my LBS yesterday looking at an IRO steel frame 
that had two big long holes on the inside of each chain stay after ten 
years of riding. My Atlantis is 10 years old this year.. I hope to keep it 
MUCH longer. 

What do you guys use for internal rust inhibitors? I can't get JPW 
Framesaver here without paying up the arse for shipping. Thinking about 
linseed oil, though I've heard it's a real mess. Any tips? Fluid Film rust 
inhibitor spray is available locally and is a mix of wax and oil. Also have 
heard Amsoil HDMP is good, but seems tricky to find here as well. 



(Also I know fenders would help. But they aren't an option at the moment, 
just looking for rust prevention)

Re: [RBW] Re: Rust-proofing your frames

[Mark Reimer]

It seems my best bet at this point - non-corrosive and non-toxic is a plus
too. I'll have to strip the bike down over the weekend and give it the
goods. Nice excuse to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon wrenching on the bike.
I can finally get around to replacing my pitted headset too!
