Paul, I believe the frame size is 51. My sage Sam is a 2015 and it’s a 51. 

Good luck with the sale. Someone will be getting an outstanding bike.

Best,

Niobium is element 41, a transition metal.  It was previously called 
columbium, but the name change was some time ago.  

Niobium bike tubes are steel with a wee bit of niobium alloyed in.  It 
presumably changes the properties of the steel in some way I can't be 
bothered to worry about.

But MUSA is top quality and great for wet weather. Dries quick. Reflectors.

Quick bump before I get impatient and buy new shorts that I can’t afford:

I'd love to buy a pair or two of MUSA shorts. Old style? Medium. New style?
Medium or small.

(Patagonia shorts are no longer on the trade block as I let the waist out
and now they’re super comfy.)

Hey John,

I’m not planning to go this year, unfortunately. I hope you have a nice ride!

I did have great time two years ago and would recommend the ride to anyone! 
It’s the only big event-type ride I’ve ever done, and it seemed very 
well-organized.

Quite a difference between Grant/Riv and Specialized. Specialized threatened to

Also, if it is in fact seepage through the tire and/or rim, it should
happen whether you're out riding, or at home reading a book. I recommend
"The Parthenon Enigma", by Joan Breton Connelly.

[RBW] Re: Billie Bars?

[Reid Echols]

I have the Billie bars on my Appaloosa, and really like them for road/town/path 
riding. That said, if your gravel rides include even slightly technical terrain 
(or you plan on riding aggressively out of the saddle) I’d highly recommend 
Albastache bars, which I have run on my sscx bike with great success. The 
security of the hooks is welcome on technical descents, and the outer handles 
work great for leverage when climbing out of the saddle. The Billies come back 
a bit far for this kind of use, imo. If you still want to use flat bar levers, 
ive heard great things able the Salsa Bend bars in a 20 degree or so sweep.

[RBW] Re: Sealant Seepage

[Nick Payne]

I've not seen that problem, despite getting some pretty damn hot days here 
in Australia, and I have quite a number of bike wheels setup tubeless with 
sealant. That doesn't look like sealant either coming out of the sidewalls 
or from the interface between tyre and rim. What sealant are you using?

For making sure that tubeless rim tape is properly adhered to the rim, 
after building a wheel and installing the tape, I first mount a tyre with a 
tube in it, inflate to a reasonable pressure, and leave at least overnight, 
so that the tube can do a good job of pressing the tape firmly onto the rim 
bed.

As an aside, I had my first ever puncture this morning that the sealant 
couldn't close - a 3-4mm long gash through the tread, presumably from a 
piece of glass. As I had a tyre worm kit with me, I cut off a piece of 
worm, stuck it in the gash with the provided tool, spun the wheel, 
re-inflated it, and continued my ride. That was certainly more convenient 
than having to remove the wheel, dismount the tyre with sealant getting 
everywhere, and then install a tube.
