Interesting - I will have a chat with my shop. Thanks! If it was not 
included in the package, then perhaps we can discuss with our buddies in 
Walnut Creek.

Don't beat yourself up, john.  You would have only had a 5 second window to get 
one anyway.  I wonder what it would cost to have Blue Lug ship one.

Well, my shop didn't mention one, and we discussed what I wanted to use for 
it (going for a steel Tange Levin I think). So perhaps not included.

Will post full build once complete in a week or two.

[RBW] Re: Alone in a Sea of Autos

[Surlyprof]

I have been commuting by bike and train for the past 3-4 years, couldn't be 
happier, and have even inspired a couple of my students to do the same.  No 
fighting the increasing Bay Area traffic anymore.  It is a pretty solo 
venture as I've actually noticed a bit of a decline of cyclists on the 
train (much to my surprise and dismay).  The first and last part of my 
commute is on a dirt path that runs along the Alameda water channel in the 
east bay.  I start the day riding as the sun rises on the lakes and 
channel.  There is always a wide array of wild birds looking for 
breakfast.  Even saw a bald eagle perched in a tree one day.  I stopped to 
watch it and then it swooped down across one of the lakes and snagged a 
fish out of the water.  Amazing way to start the day.  The ride home is 
almost pitch black with few lights beyond my bike light.  Initially 
stressed me out but now I find the dark, quiet ride a delightful way to 
wind down after a long workday.  My wife has even taken to walking our dogs 
to meet me at the edge of the park where I come out of the woods.  Great 
way to end the workday and start the evening at home.

My truck is a 2003 and, after two <2500 mile years, I expect/hope to get at 
least 20 years out of it.  Since it sits in the driveway most days, I've 
received 4 different notes under my wiper blade asking if I want to sell 
it.  I'm usually amused except for the one who wrote, "I don't care if it 
doesn't run."  I thought I should be a tad offended that a complete 
stranger would assume that I'd let my truck sit dead in our driveway.  I 
guess they noticed the elaborate spider webs that had accumulated on both 
side mirrors!

As for the bike lane, I tend to subscribe to one of Grant's suggestions on 
page 38-40 of Just Ride.  He called it the Safety Swerve.  The idea is to 
appear slightly unsteady when a car is approaching so they give you a 
little more room.  Although I don't feel the need to use it much, when I 
do, it seems to work very well.

[RBW] Frank Jones Sr. slightly-rugged build

[Jeremy Tavan]

So, I just checked with my dealer, and my Frank Jones Sr. frame has arrived 
and they're going to prep it for me (frame saver, face/chase, press crown 
race and headset) so I can then do the rest of the build. I've sourced 
somewhat heavy-duty wheels (rear Mavic A719 with Phil hub and DOS 16/19, 
front Velocity Atlas and Kasai dynamo), and I'm actually leaning towards 
taking advantage of the 38mm tire capacity to put on some Compass 
Steilacooms, and do the bike up with dirt drop stem and RM-013 bar. I'm 
thinking this would be super fun to ride around the gravel trails on and 
around the levees/salt ponds here in the Bay Area. Madness? Or just plain 
fun?

You might find baseball knickers , called "knee high pants" , to be worth a 
look.They take 1.5" belts and all stretch well.  Some are looser 
fitting than others.  If you have a local sporting goods store they may 
even have some could actually try on. What a concept in these 
picture-ordering dayze !

In regards to Patagonia pants in general and you can tell just by their 
pictures . low rise front and rear. Might be good for someone 5'8", or 
you don't mind "plumbers butt" when you bend forward. It's been a trend for 
some years now.

[RBW] Re: Experiences with Clem L or H

['Mark in Beacon' via RBW Owners Bunch]

$1,300. Crazy deal. But too big for Nancy.

Mountain Equipment Co-op makes a pair.

A good friend has a pair and says great things about them.
But it might be a bit of a hassle getting them out of country?

[RBW] Knicker Quest

[Howard Hatten]

I recently bought the Zoic Reign knickers but I haven’t been able to ride in 
them yet. They seem well made. Some sizing reference, I wear 38 Levi’s loose 
fit and the 2xl knickers fit perfect. 
Recently on the BOB list there was some interest in these.

[RBW] Knicker Quest

[Deacon Patrick]

Thanks, Justin. I’ve always been hesitant to try Swrve as they seem geared for 
pencil thin folks, as evidenced by the largest size I found in their knickers 
is a 33 waist. Sardonic grin. My waste measures at 34”, but in practice 36-38 
is required in jeans so I have room to sit. That’s only gotten trickier since 
riding exclusively fixed (thicker legs, skinier waist). Shrug.

With abandon,
Patrick

[RBW] Knicker Quest

[Deacon Patrick]

Och! Me knickers are in a twist! Sardonic grin. I am looking for knickers to 
ride in and for daily wear (so not cycling spandex knickers, but more in the 
spirit of Riv’s knickers of yore)

My requirements are:

— casual/dressy look and fit (if they fit like jeans, I’m golden)
— loose enough to allow squatting and floor sitting, but not baggy
— quiet as cotton
— belt loop for 1.5” belt (like jeans)
— Elastic at the knee
— cool, breathable

The two I’ve found that may fit the bill are:

Zoik Reign: 
https://www.competitivecyclist.com/zoic-reign-bike-knicker-mens?skidn=ZOI004S-BK-M=UExQIENhdDpNZW4ncyBDeWNsaW5nIEtuaWNrZXJzOjE6OTpjY0NhdDEwMDIyNg==

Re: [RBW] Two Wheels Sold, One Still Available

[Patrick Moore]

Eric: would you consider selling the Phil fixed/fixed separately from the
rest of the wheel? (I just possibly might be able to use the hub to replace
a Surly fixed/free.)

If so, 2 questions:

1. Is it easy to respace 120 OL to 130?

2. 32 spokes?

Well, obviously a 3d question: If "yes" to everything, then: How much?

Thanks.

Re: [RBW] I'll be at Riv and need some suggestions about the local area

[Eric Norris]

Roberta:

Other than RBW, Walnut Creek doesn’t offer much other than a small downtown 
filled with expensive shops. I suggest getting thee to San Francisco* as 
quickly as possible and starting there. 

If you get to SF around lunch, check out the Ferry Terminal’s great selection 
of gourmet offerings. They have everything from burgers to truffles to ice 
cream. You can gain a few pounds there.

Fisherman’s Wharf is very touristy, but a walk along the Embarcadero is still 
fun.

Walk to Coit Tower and take in the views from way up there.

Go to the Mission District and check out the art, shops, and the great local 
thrift and antique stores.

Rent a bike and join the army of tourists riding over the Golden Gate Bridge to 
Sausalito.

Go to the Napa Valley, which is about 45 minutes away by car. If you go there, 
pass through Napa and head straight for St Helena (nice, but pricey) or 
Calistoga (easier to have a great time on a budget).

Have fun!

* Note: the locals call SF “The City,” as in, “Let’s go to The City today!” No 
need to say *which* city—they’ll know.

Re: [RBW] Re: WTT: B17 (honey) for C17 Carved (black/slate)

[Bob Keal]

OK--last try, I swear! Almost had a trade worked out, but it fell through,
so my B17 is still available to trade for a C17 carved (slate/black).

Thanks for considering!

[RBW] Re: I'll be at Riv and need some suggestions about the local area

[Tom M]

Not a resident, but visited last year. City Lights Books is great. SF 
Giants ballpark tour is great. If you're into microbrews, this 
place http://www.mikkellerbar.com/sf/ is pretty great. Sorry, not much 
nature on my list. We stayed downtown and found the city quite walkable, 
despite the hills. I'll agree with everyone who recommended Alcatraz.

[RBW] Two Wheels Sold, One Still Available

[Eric Norris]

To All:

The two front wheels have been sold, but the rear wheel (Phil Wood fixed/fixed, 
120mm spaced, 700c, Velocity Aerohead  rim) is still available.

Make me a reasonable offer and let’s get this wheel back on the road!

[RBW] Re: I'll be at Riv and need some suggestions about the local area

[Justin, Oakland]

My standards for giving folks a tour are:
Drive over the Bay bridge because living in oakland is the best.
Get coffee someplace and decide which museum to go to. My preferences are:
DeYoung
Cal academy of Science
SFMOMA
Museum of the African Diaspora

The first two are in GG Park, the second two are in SOMA. I would choose one of 
the pairs. Either way after you go to them I would head to GG Park and explore 
th lakes, SF Botanical Garden, Tulip Gardens and Bison. Head out to Ocean Beach 
and up towards Lands End/Sutro Baths. Explore/hike that area and then drive 
back via the Presidio. 

That’s a day that will tire you out for sure. 

Muir Woods is great but you have to get a reservation for parking now.
Marin Headlands are perhaps th happiest place on earth. Bike, hike or drive 
over. You won’t be sorry.
I’m going to plug th dark horses that are our wonderful East Bay Regional 
Parks. Tilden, Sibley, Joaquin Miller, Redwood and more all have amazing 
hiking, biking and geology to see. I love the Big Trees area in Joaquin Miller 
and the hiking there is sublime. Sibley is wide open, windy and gives you 
amazing Vistas. Tilden is the wild version of GG Park.

Oakland also has OMCA which is an amazing museum and is very underrated.

Walnut Creek is a suburban bedroom community with a large big box store 
downtown. Aside from Riv it’s geared towards driving and buying. Stop by Riv, 
borrow a bike and get directions to She’ll ridge or Diablo or Briones. Bring 
your legs!


This is one man’s opinions and do not represent anything but his own wants and 
desires.

[RBW] Re: 29 x 2.3-2.5 Knobby Tire & Rim Recommendations for Clem.

[David B]

Hi Dave,
Nice! I'm right near the start of the trail. My thought is to build up my 
Clem to ride during the winter on snowy trails. I'm not really sure how 
practical that is, but it will give me options for winter riding. 
I've got some use Maxxis Ardents coming that I'll try out, and thanks to 
Keith I know will fit my Clem, and it'll give me an idea of how much room I 
have to work with.
If it does seem to have more room, there are a few 29 x 2.6" tires 
available that I think might fit:
Maxxis Rekon
Maxxis Forekaster
Schwalbe Nobby Nic

Reviews show that all of these measure out around 60-65mm wide, which I 
know will fit the back, wondering about the fork. I won't be running 
fenders.

[RBW] Re: Experiences with Clem L or H

[Jonathan D.]

I think the Clem L is a unique bike that could easily be taken long distances. 
My wife has one and loves it. If you can test ride the bike it might also be 
worth trying a Sam Hillborne. The Sam might be better for 100K rides but both 
are great bikes.

Re: [RBW] Un-un-unracing update: My first 622mm 200k, and a Sam Hillborne ride report 9-years later

[Jonathan D.]

Thanks for the write up. Sounds like s lot of fun and I’ll have to try a Brevet 
someday. I especially enjoyed the write up for the Sam, which I think is often 
the underrated Riv bike. My riding experience of the Sam is similar and despite 
the weight I don’t feel much slower. The weight of the Sam feels like it is 
mostly the component choices and not the frame and I have thought of building a 
Canti Sam up with a light group set.

[RBW] Re: I'll be at Riv and need some suggestions about the local area

[Kevin Lindsey]

So far, no one's mentioned the obvious: take a walk across the Golden Gate 
bridge and, if you're up for a bit of a hike, do the headlands on the 
opposite side (Marin).  The walk over the water is thrilling in and of 
itself, but to see the bridge and its art deco designs up close is really 
neat, and the headlands offers the classic view of it all (bridge, city, 
ocean, everything).
And, yes, Rivendell is a hoot.
