There were two separate runs of Foy/Gomez wherein different sizes existed with

[RBW] Re: Bike sizing by PBH, and wanting to give drop bars one more chance

['Eric Myers' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Mat, thanks for the tip about adding spacers to the Grip Kings!  Did you 
use the round spacers that look like a piece of really thick walled pipe, 
or did you drill through a block of aluminum for something that spans 
across both screws, or something else?

[RBW] Favorite grips for bar end shifters?

['Eric Myers' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Went for a 30 mile ride today on the Albatross bars, and somewhere between 
20 and 25 miles I found myself wishing for some part of the grip with more 
padding.  Right now the main grip area is just a wrap of Neubaum's tape and 
the rest is bare metal.  I didn't have great luck with the last cork grips 
I tried, but maybe the new ones are better.  I just put something like the 
Dutch Paddle grips on my son's bike and was about to get some for me but 
I'm not sure how to make them work with bar ends.  I'm tempted to try the 
silicone ones that Riv sells, but I'd love to hear about other solutions.

[RBW] Re: PSA: 55cm Cheviot for sale in Sacramento area

[Benz, Sunnyvale, CA]

I think he mentioned his wife's involvement as an affirmation that it's 
good enough that she had to have her own. At least that's how I read it. 
Mismatched tires are somewhat common amongst the general bike owner 
population; they are not nearly as fastidious to match tires, not to 
mention bags. This explanation is also apt for the 9 vs 10 speed mistake. :)

[RBW] Washington, D.C. Rides/Recommendations.

I second a nighttime tour of the mall and monuments via bike.  The Roosevelt 
monument is my favorite to see in the dark.  The Lincoln memorial is pretty 
good at night also.  During the day I would also recommend the National 
Arboretum in NE DC.  DC is a great city to see via bike.

[RBW] Washington, D.C. Rides/Recommendations.

[EasyRider]

David, 

You might try a nighttime tour of the mall and monuments using capital bike 
share. It will probably still be crisp and not near cold by Chicago standards. 
Just start where ever is closest to your hotel and make a circle of the 
reflecting pool. You'll see the following:

Lincoln memorial
Vietnam veterans memorial
Korean War memorial
WWI and WWII memorials
Smithosonian buildings, including the new African American history museum,
The us capitol and arboretum,
The Washington monument, and more.

Once you've seen those, you could walk or ride around the tidal basin and see 
the Jefferson, FDR, and MLK memorials.

At night the memorials are a bit different and the crowds more sparse. 
Bikeshare bikes have lights but you may want to bring a cygolite or similar if 
you have one.

Several of the bridges crossing the Potomac are being repaired at the moment, 
so some crossing  may be easier than others. The Arlington loop is a fine 
choice for a longer ride, but I would suggest an short afternoon ride to 
gravelly point instead. It's simply a spot on the Virginia side of the river 
next to DCA where one can watch planes takeoff and land, a la Wayne's World. 
Also some nice views of dc across the Potomac. 

Pete
Arlington, VA

[RBW] FS: Tektro / Avid SpeedDial levers

Tried and liked all these levers but must try to purge some of this
extra stock around here…

Up for grabs are one set of Avid 'SpeedDial 7', and two pairs of the
very-similar (but not quick-adjusting) Tektro MT3.0 -- one set silver,
the other black.

https://www.flickr.com/gp/joe_bunik/sje5k5
https://www.flickr.com/gp/joe_bunik/74u0nh

Say $15 for either of the Tekrtro and $25 for the SpeedDials, +$7
shipping. Or have 'em all for $60 shipped!

[RBW] Drop Bar Mixte? Yves Gomez/Betty Foy Geometry?

[David B]

Built up a new-to-me Yves Gomez today as an upright single speed. Wald bars as 
placeholders, with Ahearne/MAP bars on the way. 
However, I’m more upright than my Clem, though I could lower the stem a few cms 
still. 
I’m now wondering if a drop bar build is a possibility. Seems like similar 
reach as my Redwood. Also I would just need a stem and I have some spare drop 
bars and brake levers. 
So, questions are...
Anyone with a drop bar mixte?
Can’t find geometry - anyone have geo chart for Betty Foy/Yves Gomez?

[RBW] FS / take any offers: Jim Blackburn racks

[Joe Bunik]

hi BOBs

Acquired along with the Gordon Factory 2nds Rack Mountain were several
old-style "Jim Blackburn" rear racks -- some variations amongst,
possibly Bruce-modifications for rapid prototyping.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/joe_bunik/sets/72157674742384888

Would like them gone -- just let me know any rack(s) you want and I'll
send 'em your way. Please spare me the measure-and-fit questions ;-)
but, I am happy to snap a shot or two of any specific rack if you are
extra curious.

So, any offer from $0 to $100 works, for however many I can get into a
box -- certainly "several" should nest. Shipping for rack/s in my
experience runs right about +$20/large box so we'll call it that.

Just LMK.

[RBW] Re: What do Rivendell Riders use for floor pumps?

[Lum Gim Fong]

UPDATE:
Thanks for the recommendations.
I got an orange SKS Renkompressor.
Works great and very nicely built!
Easy on/off of presta and Schrader valves and shoots in surprisingly large 
volume of air per stroke.

[RBW] New Hilsen

[phil k]

Made in Taiwan. Seat lug is ball & socket so it costs less. It allows them to 
do a 6 degree slope. So less variations of lugs to carry in inventory. Also 
allows less sizes to fit over more ranges. I believe bottom bracket is filet 
brazes so no bottom bracket lugs needed.

[RBW] Re: New Hilsen

[Lum Gim Fong]

Cheaper price cuz made in Taiwan instead of USA now.

New model has a six degree (I think) sloping top tube and other frame diffs 
from the previous MUSA version.

They have an online catalog on their rivbike.com site where you can view 
the model and read about all its frame features.

[RBW] New Hilsen

[David]

Apologies if you've gone over this already; I searched for the potential 
thread, but could not find.  Question:  Why is the new Hilsen *new*, and 
why is it cheaper now?  IIRC, I paid $1800 for my frame set in 2010, and a 
few years after that it reached $2K+ for the frame set.  Thanks for your 
time.

Please call me before inserting a Honus Wagner card in your spokes. I will 
source and deliver the alternative in exchange.

school and the Pirates did spring training, Hot Springs, AR. His family 
also snubbed Grant's wish to use that name.

[RBW] Article from Cycling News....Just Ride.....I think I heard that some where before

[Jay LePree]

Excerpt from Cycling News.

"Trends across the cycling industry as a whole seem to be nudging away from 
elite pro racing and more into experiential events of gran fondos, 
bike-packing, and gravel riding. With professional racing becoming much 
more data-driven, the pushback sees many embracing more soulful cycling 
adventures. Then, the pro riders use their platforms on social media to 
share stories, photos, and more.

Italian pro Daniel Oss  
(Bora-Hansgrohe) 
has also been exploring the genre with his “Just Ride” series, hitting 
Italian back-roads in a mix of adventure and training.

“I was sick of racing. It was too much Strava records, too much training, 
and too much focus on racing,” Oss said. “We are always in the hotels, 
racing, in the airplanes, or training. We get to these amazing places 
during the season, but we never can enjoy them. I rediscovered the love of 
the bike. When I was young, I was just riding my bike for fun. That’s how 
we all started, right?”
