Re: [RBW] Re: Charlie H Gallop!

2020-07-11 Thread masmojo
Just to chime in on VO Polyvalent. 
I bought one of the lilac ones and set it up as close to the set up of my 
Atlantis as I possibly could. Albastash bars, dynamo hub, etc. Now it should be 
noted that there was a difference in frame size due to the difference between 
the 26" wheeled Alantis and the 650B/ lowish trail Polyvalent. The VO was 
noticeably heavier, but also much less costly/sophisticated.
Regardless it rides great! Easily the fastest commuter bike in my stable and 
built with fenders. Unfortunately, I haven't been working much the last year or 
so, so it hasn't had much opportunity to do it's thing.
I have to say it was one of the easiest bikes to build up that I've encountered 
the 1" steerer & not being thru Axle I thought was strange, but not a big 
problem for anyone used to Rivendells, but one of those issues is being 
rectified on the  most current version. 
I really like my Polyvalent and it sort of occupies it's own little Niche in 
that I don't think it crosses over much with any current Rivendell bike (maybe 
a Sam?) I recommend them highly.

[RBW] Re: fresh new look for google groups?????

2020-07-11 Thread Nick Payne
I think Google are deliberately trying to make the old groups interface 
less reliable, to make people switch to the new. I much prefer the old 
interface, but I'm finding that recently, when trying to load messages, I'm 
regularly getting "An error (#847) occurred while communicating with the 
server." I have to hit "Reload" one or more times to get messages to load 
correctly. If I switch to the new interface, I don't get these errors...

Re: [RBW] Re: Naches Pass EL as fast road tire?

2020-07-11 Thread Patrick Moore
Andrew: good to have another data point; thanks. I had thought of having
the bike built to take Rat Trap Passes, but then thought that accommodating
a 114 mm OL rear hub and fat tires might be a bit chancy for this
particular builder; as it is, if RTPs run a wee bit undersized, they just
might fit if I removed the fenders, but I want fenders, and the "main"
tires will be the skinny Elk Passes.

 example, the Challenge Parigi Roubaix, or the fastest of the RH road tires.
 Me, I want to know how it compares on pavement with the Elk Pass.

 If the NPs roll like the EPs, the NPs may become the default instead of
 the occasional tire for the new bike. If not, not. The bike is principally
 a pavement bike.

 I do have a used 1.75 Pasela that I'm using as a tire fit gauge but I
 think I'll pass on buying a mate; save a few bucks toward the NPs. I know
 I'm not going to substitute the Pasela for the Elk Pass!

 To pick up the new 120 mm OL Surly fixed wheel tomorrow and give the
 new bike a try with a 70" fixed gear. I anticipate nice things, compared to
 the bike it replaces, and I may well have to bump up the chainring to a 50
 for a 73"/65" gear combination with the 17/19 Dingle.

Yes, that's how you do it with plastic fenders.  Doing it with
aluminum fenders is the kiss of death.

You adjust the fender line (i.e., the arc of the fender and how
its curve matches up with the curve of the wheel) by spreading out
or squeezing together the edges of the fender.  Pulling the edges
out decreases the radius of the curve of the fender, while
squeezing the edges together increases the radius.

I'm sure I'm belaboring what you've been told before, but there's
a reason.   The right way with the plastic fenders most of us are
most used to is the deadly wrong way with aluminum fenders.

As for "pilfering" ideas -- that's why they're put out there, so
we can learn from them.   There's no :theft" here; not even "folk
process."

Just be careful of one thing.  DO NOT attempt to adjust fender line by 
pulling on the fender struts.


Yes, that's how you do it with plastic fenders.  Doing it with aluminum 
fenders is the kiss of death.


You adjust the fender line (i.e., the arc of the fender and how its 
curve matches up with the curve of the wheel) by spreading out or 
squeezing together the edges of the fender.  Pulling the edges out 
decreases the radius of the curve of the fender, while squeezing the 
edges together increases the radius.


I'm sure I'm belaboring what you've been told before, but there's a 
reason.   The right way with the plastic fenders most of us are most 
used to is the deadly wrong way with aluminum fenders.


As for "pilfering" ideas -- that's why they're put out there, so we can 
learn from them.   There's no :theft" here; not even "folk process."

Thanks, Steve. I pilfered the front strut from something I saw on Jan's

I think Ye Ol' Shoppe left the rear fender out as far as the struts allow, 
also, it's in low gear, so wheel forward, which exaggerates the look vs.

I like what you've done with the front extra support strut.  I kind of 
wonder about the rear fender line -- that's a lot of space behind the 
wheel -- but you may need that to be able to remove the wheel, I don't 
know.  But those fenders sure do look nice on that silver QB.  Looking

I believe the Roadini has 130 mm rear spacing vs most (all?) other Rivs 
have 135, if that matters.

Re: [RBW] Re: Naches Pass EL as fast road tire?

2020-07-11 Thread Andrew Turner
My wife definitely noticed a performance improvement going from Big Bens to 
Naches Pass' even with standard casing. (And she flatted less!). I 
personally wouldn't want to ride any wider than "1.8" if the bike is seeing 
mostly road though. Nothing about wide tires feels fast when you're mashing 
up hills, but then again I've never tried on 26" wheels. Maybe the quicker 
acceleration alleviates that?

[RBW] Re: FS: 52cm 1993 Bridgestone XO-1

2020-07-11 Thread Drew Saunders
Excellent question.

Back in '95 or '96 I was riding off road at Los Trancos OSP and at the 
crossing of a dry creek the front wheel apparently perfectly matched the 
creek bed. The wheel stopped rolling, and momentum kept me going. The force 
of the crash bent the original Moustache bars on the right side, but I 
couldn't detect any cracks in the frame or fork. I replaced the bars with 
heat treated ones and eventually bought new wheels, and rode the bike for 
several years after that, without any obvious signs of frame or fork 
damage, but I don't have the ability to do an ultrasound or other deep 
analysis of the frame or fork. I wanted to make sure that's clear so people 
don't expect a very gently used bike.

Late in the production run, the original forks were recalled. This bike has 
the later, post-recall fork.

I'll add all of that to the google doc.

weight limit. it's tall enough to fit on a 26" or 650b bike too. i can measure 
if you are interested. has some weird connectors attached to it that i assume 
are for fenders. lightly used condition.  85$

-Brooks b17 Special- in really good shape, but i seem to be moving away from 
brooks. i think its about 3 years old, but has been off of a bike for the 
majority of that time. It has received obenaufs once or twice a year. i would 
not call it broken in yet. 100$

-IRD Alpina Front Derailleur- 28.6 clamp. for a double or triple. used, but not 
abused. 18$

-Dia Compe Long pull Drop bar levers- these are the only drop v levers that 
dont break like the tektros do. i think these were on a bike at some point, i 
cant remember. very good, almost new condition.  40$
-Chaco Z1-size 10. fit like 10.5, these are the made in usa versions. all 
black. a little dusty, but very good shape otherwise. i wore them on one day 
hike, i think. 40$

-Herschel packable backpack- super lightweight nylon backpack that wads up 
small into its own pocket. olive green and black- 15$

-Jandd hip pack- blue with a leather patch. not huge.  5$


Free items for shipping
-Topeak Explorer rear rack. struts are for a folding bike, so youll either need 
to swap them out or cut these to make them work on a normal bike. in nice 
condition
-Blackburn mini mtn pump. i like the quality of this thing, but it has a head 
that is supposed to work on both types of valves, and its a little finnicky.

[RBW] FS: 52cm 1993 Bridgestone XO-1

2020-07-11 Thread Drew Saunders
Is the lack of a BB/Cranks/Chain scaring people away? I could install:

Shimano UN51 122.5mm BB (ugly, but still smooth)
Sugino GP 110 26/38/50 170mm cranks (original cranks, not original rings)
Whatever 8 speed chain my LBS carries
Replace the FD with an XTR
Replace the RD with an Ultegra RD 6500
Swap the 12-21 with a 12-25 if requested.
Sylvan pedals. (Really beat up, missing a dust cap!)

I’d have to bump the price to $1200 if I did all that work, but if someone 
wants it rideable, and isn’t mechanically inclined, I could get it running. 
Honestly, it’s a better deal if you or your LBS does the work.

If “local pick up” is keeping you from buying, I could get a quote from Palo 
Alto Bicycles to have them pack and ship. I doubt it would be less than $150.

Thanks for looking!

Re: [RBW] Re: Naches Pass EL as fast road tire?

2020-07-11 Thread Patrick Moore
Thanks, Jason. I know that the immensely big Big Ones on the Matthews dirt
road bike seem to roll fully as easily as the Elk Passes -- the BOs have no
tubes, the EPs have light ones. For road use, I have no particular need or
desire for tires fatter than about 32 (the EPs are labeled 32 but measure
29 mm and 27 mm on my 2 sets of rims), but for this bike at least it will
be nice to take the occasional impromptu excursion into the nearby dirt
roads and trails where sand makes the EPs ineffective.

I’ve got a pretty nice (silver) roadie wheelset for sale here in Austin, if 
you’re in the market. Ultegra hubs and mavic rims. Feel free to PM if you’re 
interested!

I inquired about the 61cm Roadini.  Needs wheels. Can anyone tecommend a

I would have thought. But I don’t know.
