I don't know anything specific about Roadini delivery dates. I did spend a good 
long while talking seat lugs with Grant and I really like the new seat lug. 
I've purchased myself out of the Roadini market by purchasing a lift-a-tube 
Rosco Bubbe, plus I have a 650b Atlantis on the way.and a HH tandem, so I

[RBW] WTT: 175mm XD2 triple for 172.5

[Bob K.]

Hey Folks,

I have a 175mm XD2 triple with standard Riv chain rings that I'd like to swap 
for the same crank but 172.5. I'd maybe even prefer the wide/low double with 
chainguard.

Maybe 500 or 600 miles on the crankset since I bought it off a list-member in 
like new condition.  Some of the miles I have put on it have been off-road, so 
there are a few scuffs.

Thanks!

Re: [RBW] FYI: Nitto Fairweather handle bars. Drop bars for riders that don't like drop bars

[Philip Kim]

i used to have the Nitto 174, and switched to the Compass Maes. 

The Nitto 174 had too short of a reach for me, locking my hands at the 
hoods of the levers. I got the maes and it offers more room to move my 
hands around, but still a short drop. I think if you use modern STI type of 
levers, the short reach is likely not a problem. also like the heat-treated 
aspect of the compass maes versions.

I made a concerted attempt to ride ever bike I owned last year and my

Dream was good, probably acceptable given the "low car.." clue, instead of
carb.

tree to bike: MY answer was cork, but rubber (one person)--that's as good
or better!

snap prone fork is carbon, but one sharpshooter had aluminum, and...kind of
works, too.

if I were a dumb millionaire (for the record, even if I accept "dumb" I
don't qualify!)-- answer was 603, but there could be other answers

favorite answer was "bandana" for equally good undies for hobo or
billionairre. I meant wool, but hard to not like bandana.

required for car but not for bike: could be many things. I'd intended disc
brakes, but there were 6-7 other answers that worked--speedometer, rear
view mirror, glove box (marginal, since Ford won't get sued if they didn't
include one)..

Only one response so far to Dave's Roughy Toughy Semi-Genuine one. I
flunked it, but there's a dead-eye amongst you who either missed zero or
two, depending on how Dave grades it...which goes back to his experience in
school, whether he jogged left or right.

Re: [RBW] Re: dynamo light decisions: Lumotec or Edelux?

[Peter White]

We now have a good solution for this. Schmidt is making, and I'm stocking,
co-axial connectors. You place them in line a few inches from the hub. Then
the spade connectors stay on the hub, and you connect and disconnect the
wires using the co-axial connector. One connector for both conductors. If
you are also using a charger, you also have the co-axial connectors on the
charger's wiring. So you leave the piggyback connectors on the hub. And of
course it makes no difference which wires off the hub go to the headlight
and which to the charger, as it's just a parallel connection.

[RBW] Re: RIVEOPARDY

[Dave Johnston]

In 2016 I decided to re-read all the readers, I'm up to RR28 right now, so 
I had an advantage.

 I thought I got all of them right but Grant's posted answers disagreed 
with 3 of them. STI is clearly wrong (it was SIS). 26" was king of the 
American road from 1930 to 1960s, but I'll give them that it is not quite 
nearly dead (the industry is just trying). I might be wrong that 32° means 
holes instead of spokes.

I wikipedia'd Buckwheat and recognized Soba instantly as I have one on my 
Ram. I thought it might be Dove as high carb but the girlfriend who has a 
dove on her San Marcos made the squab connection and helped with the MUSA 
connection. Anyway I got a small store credit!

Re: [RBW] Re: dynamo light decisions: Lumotec or Edelux?

I much prefer the Shimano-style connectors. Easier to set up, easier on and off 
the hub. Try fiddling with the spade connectors in the dark near the end of a 
600k brevet and you’ll know what I mean.

Schmidt’s spade connectors, by comparison, look like almost Victorian.

I've been listening intently for updates whispers also.  Grant's news was 
disappointing.  But Grant is a clever chap, and that means there is hope 
that a set-back can be turned into an opportunity.  It is a great idea, and 
I'll be patient until the breakthrough comes.

Re: [RBW] dynamo light decisions: Lumotec or Edelux?

['Stephen Kemp' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Just to pick up on Peter's point on flicker, low speed means walking pace. 
This means flicker is not apparent in most riding scenarios.

All dynamo powered LED headlights flicker at low speeds. It's more
noticeable with the IQ-X because it's flickering more brightly than other
headlights at those low speeds.

Re: [RBW] FYI: Nitto Fairweather handle bars. Drop bars for riders that don't like drop bars

[Les Lammers]

Howdy Patrick,

I will be able to comfortably use the drops. I will not be as bent 
over with these and the top is just like a Noodle bar.

Woo Hoo for you! Who says you have to grow up? I hope you can ride it a bit
