They look like V-brakes to me. You can see the noodle in the front cable 
line. And, a side pull doesn't easily work in the rear because of the cable 
routing to the brake arm with the housing stop. That Saddlesack would get 
in the way.
I don't recognize the brakes -- TRP?
Same ornate seat cluster lug as on the Susie/Wolbis. I like it and the 
fluted end caps on the seat stays.-

Brendanoid: I’d have never believed it but you have the photo. Age 3, landing 
jumps with no feet? Also, do I see a rear rack on that bike? YOU were more Riv 
than Riv. We should get patches made.

Matthew: You gave the cutoff for “our” haircut at 1980. My photo was taken in 
1986. North Dakota was always behind the trends!

[RBW] WTB right (rear) shimano paul thumbie (or a set, if necessary)

2020-08-18 Thread Michael Baquerizo
looking for a rear derailleur paul thumbie. color doesn't matter really, 
silver would be cool but black is fine. 

aesthetic condition doesn't matter too much either. 

if anyone has the thumbie (or adapter) that takes the riv shifters, that 
would be good too. 

thanks in advance!

Re: [RBW] Re: FS: 59cm Square Rivendell Road with S Couplers

2020-08-18 Thread Karl
Welcome! 
Should ride snappier... new AHH is longer wheelbase... but the AHH will fit 
wider tires. So, this would ride more traditional road.
Pretty level
7cm I believe. 
I am 84.5...but like most men, I stretch it to 85. I’d say 83 to 87
Less than 30, but the wheels are quiet heavy so you could get it down in 
the upper 20s pretty easy
Hope that helps! My email is karl.wor...@gmail.com if you have any other 
questions you want to chat private. Thanks!

A couple of questions. I’m fairly new to Rivendell.  Wondering if you could
comment.
How different would this ride feel compared to the latest version of AHH?
Top tube is level or so it appears?
Stem is short.  5cm?
What is PBH range for this frame?
While Riv bike owners are not weight conscious, still, I’d like to know
what this bike weighs.  It matters if I’m schlepping it in a suitcase in

[RBW] Re: VP 001 rebuild kit

2020-08-18 Thread Paul Clifton
Last time I tried to deal with this, the bike shop told me to pull them 
apart and figure out what bearing I needed and they'd order it from wheels 
manufacturing.

I didn't have the tool to take the bearings out of the 001 (a 4 or 5 mm 
punch if I recall), and the rebuild kit cost as much as a new pair of VP 
Vice pedals, so now I just have a clicky pedal that I use sometimes for 
temporary stuff.

That was several years ago. I searched again a couple years ago and 
couldn't find the kits at all anymore. Kinda turned me off of VP even 
though I do really like their pedals.

>From the CHG drawings, it looks like the tubing might actually be smaller
diameter than the Roadini. The Roadini (at least in my 61cm size), has a
28.6~31.8 top tube, while the CHG looks to be 25.4 that is squished various
ways. That would be a nice change--the Roadini is plenty stout.

James told me some stuff today about the Charlie H Gallop and I've kept the 
secret for a full hour now - I hope he wasn't expecting me to hold it in 
longer than that :D 

- They will be sold as completes with Clem-like pricing (I don't know if 
they'll be drop bar, upright, or both options) 
- Rough timing is November to January for them to be available (or maybe 
that's the presale, don't quote me) 

As someone who has almost all the parts to build one up, I was hoping for 
frameset only, but if it's near the $1650 complete mark, how can I 
complain.

Re: [RBW] Re: MKS Next Touring Pedal Bearing Question

2020-08-18 Thread 'Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch
I think you've got the truth of it, Benjamin. The dust cover is tight plus 
a snug, and the bearings spin freely. The only "adjustment" the dust cover 
seems to do is loosening the macro bearing mechanisms so the pedal is loose.

Aye, Ray, I was bemused that I managed to hit a rock to unscrew the dust 
cap without bending the grip plates. The aluminum outter threads of the cap 
have a few scratches is all. I had no idea I was so finessed a rider. 
Sardonic grin, as finesse is a highly relative term when applied to 
anything I do.

With abandon,
Patrick

Hello, friends! The endless purging of unused items continues. This time 
it’s a grab bag of clothing, bike items, and camping stuff. All prices are 
USD, and do not include shipping. Shipping will start at $4 USD, depending 
on what and how much you get. Local contacless pickup can be arranged 
(around Mount Tabor in Portland), but you have to pre-pay first. Payment 
via PayPal or Square Ca$h. Interested? Drop me a line at 
urbanadventurelea...@gmail.com and include your ZIP Code so I can sort out 
shipping costs. 

*$5 items*

   - *Zefal Lapize traditional frame pump. *Measures 380 mm, will fit in 
   the pump pegs of an old British three speed (like my 1968 Raleigh Superbe.) 
   Comes with hose for schrader tubes.
   - *Rustine Constructeur Grips*, white. Nice soft rubber. Ribbed, for 
   your pleasure.
   - *REI Inflatable sit pad.* Still holds air just fine!
   - *Old school cyclometer.* Mounts near your front hub, measures distance 
   by a sprocket wheel hitting spokes. Clicky!


*$10 Item*

   - *Ex-Officio long-sleeved "Old Man Action Shirt", size "L".* Liberally 
   vented and has those "straps" that hold a rolled up sleeve up. Unknown 
   synthetic material (probably polyester), and I say "large" because the tag 
   is gone.


*The $40 Item*

   - *MUSA striped blue/grey long sleeved shirt,* 100% merino wool, size L. 
   That classic shirt that Rivendell used to carry, made in the USA. Well 
   cared for and in good shape, but it's most likely shrunk a little over the 
   years.

Fixed gear single track riding my Quickbeam I managed to loosen the dust cover 
that doubles to adjust the bearings with a pedal strike on a rock. I snugged it 
up via an alan wrench and the pedal spins freely and everything seems fine. 
However, the MKS site says: "The dust seal cap also functions as the bearing 
adjuster. If you loosen the cap, it may cause play and premature wear."

[RBW] WTT: my large Saddlesack for your Baggabond (pretty sure that's the one)

2020-08-18 Thread Teague Scott
Hi!

So, I just purchased a large olive saddlesack from a fellow list member. I 
was hoping to support the bag with a Mark's rack, but the bag is just too 
deep! I'm thinking that the Baggabond would be a slightly better fit with 
the Mark's (I know - might not be the best rack choice...) and I have the 
extra height for it.

The large saddlesack I've got is in really good condition. There is a bit 
of fading around the edges, but no serious wear and tear. I'd be happy with 
a Baggabond, ideally olive, in most any condition as long as it isn't full 
of holes!

Anyone out there interested in a trade? I can also throw a little $$ on top 
if you like.

I'm happy to send photos along to anyone that might be able to help!

- Teague

I ran across them in 2011 or 2012 and ordered this set in 2013. This will 
be the second set of wheel built with them. My first set on nice hubs, back 
in 72, were Campagnolo Tipos which were large flange with round holes and I 
have always had a soft spot for them as well as the whole "Drillium" thing.

[RBW] VP 001 rebuild kit

2020-08-18 Thread spencer robinson
My older pair of VP “ThinGripsters brought me home with an annoying click 
the other day. I have determined that it is the drive side pedal as the 
noise is gone when I switch to a fairly new pair of Clem pedals. My 
question to the group is, does anyone know where I can find a rebuild kit? 
I don’t see anything at Rivendell or even Amazon. 
Then I was thinking, maybe just buy a new pair of Clems..might be cheaper..
