pair. As a bonus comes with adapters cables and housing was originally 
installed on my semi custom Bantam with Jones bars.

A custom color offered by Fender in the ‘50’s and ‘60’s.  They used the

[RBW] FS: Stuff! For cyclists! For... you?

2021-02-14 Thread Nathan F
 

Hi all, as I’m stuck indoors due to snow and ice here in PDX (don’t worry, 
I did get out for a ride) I’ve decided to get rid of a few things that I 
have laying around. Some Riv-ish, some not as much. Please shoot me a 
message if you’re interested in anything. Prices include shipping, I accept 
Paypal and cash via carrier pigeon. 

   - White Industries 16T Freewheel. OK condition, some installation scars 
   but not too much wear on the teeth. $50. 
   - White Industries DOS ENO 17T/19T 2-speed Freewheel. OK condition, just 
   like the last. Installation marks but little wear on the teeth. $65. 
   - White Industries MI5 Front Hub, polished silver 32H. Purchased 
   mid-2019, in good shape. Certainly less than 1000 miles on it. Selling 
   because I upgraded to a SON dynamo. Slight marks in the spoke holes from a 
   wheel build, as you’d expect. $90. 
   - Shimano DH-3N72 32H Silver Dynamo Hub. Perhaps the standard dynamo 
   around these parts, this one is brand new in the Shimano box as I ended up 
   with SON. $75. 
   - Paul Components Gino light mount in silver (not polished). Nice little 
   light mount, I’ve upgraded to a rack mounted dynamo set up and thus won’t 
   be needing this guy any more. $20.  
   - Brooks B-17S “Ladies Standard” brown saddle. Basically new, no wear on 
   it at all. The intended rider didn’t want to deal with breaking it in 
   (can’t blame her!). $90. 


OK now here’s the more off-beat stuff:

   - Dura Ace FC-7710 Track crank, 170mm, in silver. This one’s a long shot 
   sale, but perhaps someone’s looking for a very nice crank. And I mean very, 
   very nice--this thing's gorgeous. Brand new in box, never installed. $350. 
   - GRX Di2 1x rear derailleur. Brand new in box. $275.  
   - GRX RX810 40T 175mm Crankset. Brand new in box. $200.

Always happy to answer any questions about anything above. 

Nathan

I love this Rambouillet and it's decently wide gearing range.  Looks very 
comfy.

I'm in the process of building up a similar Canti-Romdowntube shifters 
and non-aero levers.
Curious if there's a trick to get non-aero housing to swoop up and down 
gracefully like that?  Is there a type or brand that is best suited for 
this?
Also, does anyone know the name or code for this Ram color?

Thanks

We started the day off with a ride into town for coffee. We dashed home

[RBW] FS - Rack n' Roll (Nitto RBW52F Basket Rack & Green Grips Tape)

2021-02-14 Thread Huston
Greetings.  Like many of you, I'm in the process of winter tinkering and 
have a couple of items to unload:

1. Rivendell RBW52F basket rack by Nitto.  Purchased new directly from 
Riv.  Rack has been assembled and installed but is otherwise new (i.e., no 
road miles).  I'm shifting to a setup with a mini/rando rack and saddlebag, 
thus the sale; but, this rack is beautiful.  All the little bits are here.  
$215.00 shipped.

2. Green Grips bar tape.  If you haven't tried Green Grips, I would 
recommend it.  Unfortunately, I'm not so good with the internet and 
colors.  This tape may be aquamarine, but it may be teal.  Two rolls of 
standard tape with wooden cork bar plugs. $17.00 shipped.

Pictures are available here 
.
  
Please send a message if you're interested.

Thanks,
Huston
Lexington, KY

I'm away from home at the moment. I'll take some photos of the crank

brake braze ons are for center pull brakes.
