[RBW] Re: What do Rivendell riders use for cycling in the rain in the cold?
Some spendy shoes that I purchased earlier this year: http://arcteryx.com/ProductFind.aspx?language=EN=Footwear=Shoes We have had some wet weather lately, of the kind that would have inundated my previous go-to gore tex hikers and blundstones, and these worked dandy. Stiff sole in the approach shoes works well with my grip kings.

[RBW] Re: Dyno light recommendation
I had this little set up for about three years on commuter Atlantis: http://www.amazon.com/Light-Motion-Stella-600-Dual/dp/B005NGQ0GO/ref=sr_1_9?s=sporting-goodsie=UTF8qid=1412714331sr=1-9keywords=light+and+motion+stella One is a flood the other a spot. Two Phil mounts on either side of the Mark's Rack, ran the cable through the front strap and into the loafer where the battery resided. Very bright, had to angle them down to keep from blinding traffic. Downside is of course charging. My commute isn't too bad, so I could hold enough juice during winter by charging over night once a week. Experimented briefly w/ the Shimano dynohub on a Bleriot, I did have considerable vibration. Finally got Rich Lesnik to build a wheel with the SON28 and picked up one of the upside down Edulux fellows. (I think these are no longer in production, and there is no current inverted-edulux ii either, unfortunately). That's the lead up to me saying: I like the wheel, hub, and light a lot.

[RBW] Re: SONdelux or Shutter Precision SV-8 Dynamo Hub?
What size tire? Rich said that on 700c that the SONdelux will cut out a bit at lower speeds, whereas the SON28 does not. More resistance (marginal) on latter. On Monday, October 6, 2014 11:15:10 PM UTC-4, lungimsam wrote: Trying to decide on a dyno hub. Which one has less drag and more power, and what else could be of concern? I have read the blug about the Shutter, but it doesn't give definite stats on how it specifically compares to the SONdelux. Since this is gonna be a big investment, I want to be sure I am getting something that's going to run lights really well, and not make noise, not make the bike vibrate, and keep the lights on after the wheel stops turning, etc. No flicker, no cutting out at low speeds, etc. Thanks for any info. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: platrack mounting question
Weird, I had mine originally mounted on a 57 cm Bleriot.

Love it. I used the bosco bars to update my wife's old specialized rockhopper for a daily rider for my son.
