Re: [RBW] WTB: Saluki, 54cm or thereabouts

[Applegate]

Hello everyone,

Thank you, thank you, and thank you for the counsel and assistance. The 
last week's been a bit of a busy pitch, and I am sorry for leaving my end 
of the line dead when help was on the other end. My Riv hopeful  had indeed 
already done due diligence on that great North Smithfield Saluki, but it 
hadn't worked out at that stage.

I've messaged Brendan, and we're seeing if it'll all work out!


Thank you again for all guidance so far!

Alex Applegate

[RBW] WTB: Saluki, 54cm or thereabouts

[Applegate]

Hello Bunchpeople,

I'm here on a mission to help a friend find a 54cm Saluki—her dream bike. I 
will state up front that I do recognize:

   - we're in search of bit of a rare bird
   - the AHH took over for the Saluki
   - one Robert Blunt, of Pennington, NJ seems to be in the final stage of 
   obtaining the only presently known Saluki listing (in the 54 spec, no less)

Nonetheless, I thought this group would be the best hope for tracking down 
a solution. In the even that an appropriately sized Homer could take its 
place, what do we think would be the likelihood of and the process for 
acquiring Saluki decals and headbadge?

Thank you in advance!

[RBW] Re: FS Sackville Trunksack Small - Olive

[Applegate]

I'm interested! My only concern is that it looks like it may have been 
machine washed (the rough texture of the canvas doesn't look like the new 
olive bags), which diminishes the weather-proofing of the wax. Do you know 
if that is the case?

Thank you,
AA

[RBW] Re: WTB: Nitto 32f Campee Mini Front Rack (and use with V-Brakes?)

[Applegate]

Jeremy—thanks! That makes sense. I've found the same result using the M-18. 
I would feel better about using the actual braze-on I have on the fork, 
rather than the brake bolts.

Max—Sounds good to me! If it has a front light mount tab, all the better 
still. I'm not in any rush.

Hi Chris. I’d love to buy those GravelKings from you. If you do happen to be 
passing through this part of the East Bay, I live in West Berkeley, three 
minutes from the University Ave exit from the 580. If not, we can certainly 
arrange for pickup elsewhere!

Thanks,

Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: Sackville Banana Sax

Pictures and price? Spencer told me that the next batch should be coming in
“early august,” so it may be that the shipping cost would offset my desire
to get one even sooner than that.

Thank you!

Ah, thank you for the offer. I was thinking it'd be worth adding in the 
tires with the wheelset, but I won't rush the purchase without.

I'm fairly certain I PM'd you, but I can't tell for certain! I'm interested 
in this bike on behalf of a friend who is yet to be approved for posting.

[RBW] Re: Fortunate Timing -- My New MIT Atlantis

[Applegate]

Looking GOOD! I would *love* to see some close-up shots on the fender 
clearance at the frame and fork, as I'm also looking for an aluminum fender 
to put on my MIT Atlantis 55.

Thanks,

I've been prowling around in the weeds (emails) on this thing hoping the 
sell wouldn't go through for the past couple of weeks. Whoever is the 
pending purchaser really lucked out with a patient salesperson.

Third photo! Much less red than the Blue Lug e-commerce photos I linked the 
other day. I’m enjoying this mystery more than I have reason to.

[RBW] Re: New Silver2 Shifters w/ thumb mounts on Blue Lug JP

[Applegate]

Thanks for bringing that up Julian. I see how my subject line may have been 
imprecise. I saw that ENE demarcation on the mounts, and interpreted the 
following translated product description as meaning they (either BL or RBW) had 
requested the mounts be made by Dia-Compe for the XO shifters.

“Original part number that started the design from scratch. Requested the 
production of a traditional Osaka component brand DIA-COMPE.”

The RBW page did guesstimate Feb. 10 for thumb mount arrival, and their bar-end 
pods for both SiLVER1 and the new shifters “are virtual but ethically produced 
knock-offs of Shimano bar-end shifter pods.” It seems plausible that they’re 
collaborating with Dia-Compe to save themselves some time and money in 
development and prototyping.

This is my working theory.

I love the build! How old is this Sam? It’s in the centerpull Sam era—do you

Hi all,

The description covers most of this. I'd be fine to get the RBW one, but

just buy the R-14 new. Let me know if anyone has one lying around!

Thanks,
