[RBW] ISO: Trail Bike

[Bob B]

Asking for my little brother who lives in Flagstaff AZ and wants his first 
“good bike” to go trail riding and bikepacking with his friends. He has a 
pretty good budget but cant go over $1400.


It might not be a Riv. I persuaded one brother to get on a Riv (a Sam). but 
this brother needs something different at the moment.I was thinking a used 
Surly, Sklar (maybe long shot), Crust. Anyone selling or know someone 
selling? Any general recommendations about makes or where to look? Not sure 
what other online communities are out there where B//S/T are done on a 
trust level like this great one and BOB. 

Thanks in advance.

[RBW] Re: FS: Nitto Bosco Bars (52cm HT Alu; 55cm Chromo)

[Bob B]

Bumping this up. Still have some 52 Heat Treated Alu Bosco Bars. Another 
round of cleaning means I remembered I had these for sale!

$60 shipped, or $45 local pickup in Brooklyn.

[RBW] Alternative to Velo Orange Wheel Stabilizer

[Bob B]

Besides what the subject says...

I'm looking for a solution to wheel tippage while using a regular kickstand 
that:

   - Does *not* require you to do anything (e.g.: flick down a flickstand)
   - Isn't dangerous
   - Looks cleaner/simpler than the VO product.
   - Lasts a while so I can forget it's there
   - Can be a DIY solution

Include pics on your bike if you have a good setup!

Thanks,

[RBW] FS: Nitto Bosco Bars (52cm HT Alu; 55cm Chromo)

[Bob B]

You can tell these are my favorite bars because I have four of them to my name 
right now. But I only need two so I’m selling these. Both have been mounted and 
ridden but cared for and are in good condition.

Pics: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NCxudQcG_5bKMKEU98ji6c9LnQ55tpMZ

Steep local NYC pickup discounts can be negotiated! These are so big they cost 
more than $20 to ship!

52cm HT Alu: $65 shipped
55cm CRMO: $50 shipped

Both together? $105 shipped 

Please PM for inquiry.

Thank you!

Re: [RBW] Re: Issues with slipping bosco bars?

[Bob B]

I've ridden these bars for many years. When I first installed them they 
slipped and I found that to fix it I had to tighten the bolt a little bit 
more than I was comfortable with—once I did, they were set and haven't 
moved a smidge since.

[RBW] Will a Tubus Duo mount to a 700c Hunqapillar fork w/o p-clamps?

[Bob B]

Has anyone tried this combination—to mount a Tubus Duo to a 700c Hunq fork? 

The dimensions on the Tubus drawing indicate 165mm between mounting 
eyelets... the distance between those two points on my early 2016 Waterford 
700c Hunq fork is more like 180. Am I right to assume that there's no 
chance this rack will work without a p-clamp or Nitto clamp bands?

If anyone's mounted this on a Hunq successfully, let me know!

[RBW] Re: Has Anyone Rinko'd Their Riv? - Follow Up on Yesterday's Rivendell Email

[Bob B]

Hey Steve,

Bill is right -- there's no need to Rinko to get to NYC via Amtrak.

I did the opposite trip, from here in NYC down to DC a few years ago, the 
rode to Pittsburg via C/GAP. I called and there are particular trains 
(usually a few per day) that have a storage car for bikes. Fully assembled, 
I even had some bags on it, it was no problem.

That said, to Rinko your bike would be great for other trips and uses

[RBW] Kickstand tire rub

[Bob B]

I’ve wanted to use a kickstand for a while on my hunq; I currently run 55mm big 
bens and 2.10 smart sams. After I mounted the standard Plescher model, I 
immediately had to remove it because of tire rub. Bummer.

Does anyone know if the bulkier kickstand Riv recently started offering is 
designed to clear wider tires? Or, is there another brand, or some other 
creative solution to this?

Thanks

Re: [RBW] Re: clean-ish routing for generator lights

[Bob B]

Personally, I would still go under the downtube because the cable will 
never be in the way.  If you plan on using fenders later and wanted to be 
slick you could wire in a connector just after it swoops under the bb, 
which, if you put on fenders and wanna disappear the wire under the rear 
one, you could plug that new wire into the connector at that point.

Re: [RBW] Re: RBW 25 -Atlantic side of things

[Bob B]

I don't get to do a ton of trail riding, as I live in the city, but the 
Minnewaska trails are the best I've ever ridden. Long, flowy, easy, super 
scenic. Areas where you come out into open prairies that are the closest 
thing I've seen on the east coast to those bucolic hills the Rivbike team 
gets to ride to from their shop. So I'm game for that, but also open to 
other ideas.

[RBW] OT- Death Valley on foot

[Bob B]

Hey Ant! I’m envious because DV is one if my favorite places in earth and my 
wife and I have backpacked in there quite a lot. We always do the vegas rental 
car method too.

You should be conservative as to where you drive the car, always but even more 
so with the shutdown. When the road signs say 4x4 only, you should really take 
heed, or carefuy drive only a a mile or two in if that gets you where you wanna 
be. You wont get a cell signal in there and flats are common. The rangers, if 
any are working, will have the latest on road conditions. Sign in at the 
visitor center if you plan to go into the back country and tell a friend at 
home your plans... sorry if you already know this.

With the shutdown services are limited. Check social media and call the visitor 
center at furnace creek—I think that is being kept open by funding from a 
private foundation.

A good resource is Steve Hall’s website www.panamintcity.com ... check his 
pages on death valley basics and read up on safety and park regulations (no 
fires, etc)... very important to do your research for route planning too if 
youre going deep into the back country. Steve uses an interesting technique 
using a mix of google earth and gps, and has hiked hundreds of canyons, many of 
which are seldom visited. He posts detailed trip reports with photos and maps 
that are great reference if you decide to mimic a route.

He’ll also tell you to get Michael Diginnet’s book, Hiking Death Valley, which 
I can confirm is worth every penny. Its one of those epic labors of love.

DV is a beautiful place. So huge and expansive, otherworldly, truly wild. Be 
safe and I hope you have a great time!! Carry lots of water! I hope you post 
pics when you’re back.

And feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.

[RBW] Re: Hunqapillar fender options

[Bob B]

Hey Kurt, 

Seems like you have a lot of replies already and I'm late on this, but I do 
have a 2016 58cm Hunq. I have Velocity Atlas rims and I run 55mm big bens 
and 2.1 Smart Sams, both have healthy clearance for SKS commuter fenders.

I know that's not as big as you wanna go, especially with cliffhanger rims. 
But I dunno if I'd go too much more than that with fenders, honestly, even 
with Atlas.

Hope that helps

My favorite time was when I was riding my Hunq home from work in Brooklyn 
and a guy pulled up next to me at a stop light riding a custom Johnny 
Coast, the first Coast I had seen in the wild!

My favorite time I saw another Riv while I wasn't riding one was when I was 
driving out of Zion National Park enjoying the spectacular scenery, when 
all of the sudden there's a guy riding down the road with a Sam Hillborne 
touring rig. I could tell what it was instantly as soon as I saw the seat 
stays from the rear. Had to yell "NICE BIKE MAN!!"

[RBW] Re: nail polish suggestions

[Bob B]

With Waterford frames, you can call them and order actual touchup paint to 
match. However those models are not Waterford, so if I were you I'd just 
call Riv and inquire about the actual touchup paint. They aren't going to 
force red nail polish down your throat if you tell them you want an actual 
match.

[RBW] Saddlesack M Mounting to Spring Saddle

[Bob B]

Does anyone have experience with and/or pictures of mounting a Riv Saddlesack M 
or L to a brooks spring saddle? Im trying to figure out it it will work, or if 
I’ll have to switch saddles in order to run a saddlesack.

[RBW] Re: In Japan! Any recommendations?

[Bob B]

I went to Blue Lug Hatagaya a few months ago. Tons of Rivendells, Nitto 
galore, cool bike knick knacks, bells/whistles, tshirts etc. They also have 
LUG Hatagaya, a cafe/restaurant/bar around the corner, nice vibes. Hatagaya 
is pretty residential so for a tourist not much else to do out there, but 
not a far train/bus ride from Shinjuku.

Not bike related: Possibly my favorite cafe on earth would be Lion 
<https://goo.gl/maps/P5U76B32SCz>. In Shibuya. You have to be quiet inside, 
because they have an ongoing program of classical music on vinyl played 
through a spectacular custom 2-story sound system.

[RBW] Re: How crucial is it to chase the threads a derailleur hanger

Derailleur is in. Thanks for all the advice folks!

Exacto on the first couple of threads to get it started was a pain in the

[RBW] How crucial is it to chase the threads a derailleur hanger

[Bob B]

On a repainted frame that clearly has a coat of paint in the derailleur 
threads... how crucial is it to chase those threads? Is it incredibly 
unwise to attempt to slowly mount my RD, backing out of the threads every 
1/4 turn or so?

I ask because I don't have a tap handy and I'm under a time crunch to get 
my bike rebuilt! if theres another tapless workaround, please share! Or, 
tell me if I'm worried for no reason.

Thanks,
Bob

[RBW] Re: Lower price Atlantis!

[Bob B]

I don't see pump pegs in that photo but, the Longboard model would afford 
the clearance for a pump. That's one of my favorite things about my vintage 
Peugeot city commuter.

Could that help quell some of the reactions some folks have, i.e." see the 
gap and hate it from the get-go"?

Re: [RBW] Re: What type of bike would make you buy another riv

[Bob B]

That's a really good point, Bill and Steve. I'd still like to see Riv to 
expand their low end taiwan made partially-tigged simple paint job 
framesets. For instance, Surly's not making (and I cant really imagine them 
making) a partially tigged rosco-esque mountain mixte, or anything close to 
a Clem. 

I empathize with the partially tigged thing on another level because I'd 
love to use my Riv (hunq) as my primary city commuting bike, but I've found 
that I'm too nervous locking it outside on an errand. I can see the appeal 
of a great frame that *doesn't* catch anyone's eye...

Re: [RBW] What type of bike would make you buy another riv

[Bob B]

I want a [rosco] mountain mixte in my size to be my ultimate utilitarian 
city bike that I can ride far and load up and camp with (I was in between 
sizes at 89.5pbh with short arms, so, like, a 58cm with no more than 60cm 
virtual top tube). I'd junk it up visually but in a way I like (call it 
"beausage") and have it secretly be the smoothest most satisfying ride. And 
I see the tigs as an asset in NYC -- can't have a dandy-looking bike in 
this city.

[RBW] Which tire was ridden on your first excursion into 650b?

[Bob B]

I started with Swiftys on Synergys. They were great but wore out fast. I 
switched to regular Schwalbe Marathons and are still riding the same pair. 
Nothing flashy about them, but after 8–9k miles, they are good as ever for city 
commuting.

[RBW] Re: Found Upright riding worse than drops riding.

[Bob B]

I always ride upright and I've found that if the saddle height is about 
even with the grips (or grips just a smidge higher), that is a sweet spot, 
assuming the grips are comfy and the saddle's broken in.

Sometimes you see these setups depicted on the riv website/blug with the 
stem at max height, much above the saddle height. Ive tried that but, for 
long-distance, the butt starts to hurt.

So you could try again, lowering the stem so that grips are at a height 
that encourages a better butt-hands pressure distribution?

[RBW] Re: Silver Shifter 2 project revived

[Bob B]

I bet it will work really well, because Silvers do and Riv cares, duh... 
Plus, prototypes are prototypes. Design is iterative.

I might be talking out of my ass here, but I was also kinda thinking the 
look of these shifters—besides taking a note from the old Suntours—could be 
part of an evolution in Riv's design aesthetic... industrial/post-war 
ridges/notches/grooves like the Appa fork and, Rosco graphics? Rodini 
headtube. The Chocomoose bars have a rigid, less flowy shape to them... I'm 
on board.

Hey Bill... I saw this bag and love the design in general, but my eye goes

handlebars/saddles. May be too early to ask if you haven't mounted it yet, 
but... is that just padding? Is it necessary?

Re: [RBW] Re: Dynamo Hubs

I know that with the Sanyo, you can't run the leads on the non-drive side

Doug,

A good option for an inexpensive starter dynamo is the Sanyo hub that Peter 
White sells: http://www.peterwhitecycles.com/sanyo.php

I've been running on for a little while now on my commuter, which I lock 
outside and don't like to put too much money into. It's been working fine. 
And like most dynamos, it powers my front and rear lights.

Nice video Jim. Love the idea of the "Gaman" spirit.

It reminded me of this kinda korny but super interesting video on bicycle 
culture in Japan  I saw a few 
years ago, which was part of the "Cool Japan" campaign (state-sponsored 
cultural propaganda).

Particularly interesting is the section on "power-assisted" bicycles 
. Boy, is the perception about 
e-bikes different there. Main takeaway: power-assisted bikes are to help 
people get up hills without straining. Not to break the sound barrier.

[RBW] Casual Observations on Japanese Metropolitan Area Bike Transportation

[Bob B]

 

I just visited Japan for the second time (this time on business, mostly in 
the city of Kobe), and noticed a lot of interesting differences between 
Kobe’s bike culture and the one in NYC. One obvious caveat: I don't live in 
Japan, so I don't know how representative my experience is to the actual 
state of things. Anyhow... a few (perhaps somewhat perfunctory) 
observations:


*People use practical bikes.* At least 95% of the bikes I saw men and women 
ride were step-throughs, often outfitted with fenders, baskets, kids' seats 
and sidewall dynamos. People dress in normal clothes, and business suits. 
Bikes are about getting to work, running errands, carrying groceries, etc.


*People don’t ride fast.* There are not tons of bike lanes per se, so 
people are riding at casual paces on the sidewalk, and seem very courteous 
about passing pedestrians. I didn’t see any entitled cyclists shouting “GET 
OUT OF THE WAY YOU’RE IN A BIKE LANE.” They’re in a city filled with peds, 
not on a back country road, so they ride slower. They wait for lights. I 
don’t think I saw anyone wearing a helmet, though I’m sure some people do.


I witnessed a young woman biking across an intersection, when an old man on 
a motorbike coasted into the crosswalk on a collision course with her. They 
both slammed on their brakes, then she crossed in front of him before he 
continued. No words or looks exchanged. Anyone who bikes in NYC can imagine 
how differently that would have played out here.


*People don’t need lots of locks.* The euro-style wheel lock seems to be 
enough. Bikes aren’t attached to anything like a fixed rack or street sign. 
What a luxury!


*People bike into old age.* I saw many elderly people on ancient steel 
bikes with relaxed riding stances and comfy seats. 


The dominant bike culture seemed to be based on practicality and getting 
around; a classic bike culture. I wondered how much of that can be 
attributed to the relative level of racing-focused bicycle marketing there. 
It was really fun watching people ride and looking at the bikes parked 
outside, most of which were cheap and from labels I didn’t recognize. I 
thought a lot about how all the points above are the ways I like to ride 
(with the exception of riding on the sidewalk), and how what usually feels 
like an outcast way of riding in NYC is the mainstream somewhere else.


Conclusion: I want to get a Riv step-through.

Yep, that's exactly why I ordered a pair of the A10s from you last month, 
Peter! Too bad about the shipping delay from the manufacturer. Excited to 
get them. On my Velocity Synergies it looks like they'll measure pretty 
much the same as my Marathons, which I use otherwise throughout the year on 
my commuter.

[RBW] Re: Beartown Mountain Overnight, Cheviot, Rain, Question

[Bob B]

Cool ride! And cool bike! Boscos!

I've been wondering about those 718 trips. Was it a good bunch? I wish we 
New Yorkers didn't have to get on a train to get to some decent bicycling.

If I were you I would go up to a triple if you wanna do lots more long 
rides like this, but at least a double. Every ride I do upstate I end up 
using all 3 chainrings. I've never had a 1x setup, so I cant speak to what 
you'd be missing out on. Maybe a greater physical challenge? But two or 
three chainrings = convenience!

[RBW] Re: Fender Mounted Rear Dynamo Light?

[Bob B]

This week I wired a tail light (not fender-mounted, technically, but out on 
the back of a Tubus rack in more or less the same position).

I ran it inside my SKS chromoplastic fenders. I read about this in a few 
places on the internet, it's not original to me.

   1. Ran wire along bottom of down tube, one zip tie at other end (stress 
   points) and a small bead of silicone gel to hold it in place along the 
   length.
   2. Swung under BB, using a spare piece of fender hardware as a guide, 
   threaded onto the cable guide bolt.
   3. Drilled hole in fender just above where it's mounted to the bridge, 
   and again where it needs to come out for the light. 
   4. Inserted rubber grommets at each location (to protect the wire).
   5. Ran the wire inside the fender and covered tightly with HVAC tape. 
   Made sure to leave a little extra slack between the BB guide and where it 
   enters the fender.
   6. Cut the wire at the above location, bought and crimped on a set of 
   Supernova gold-plated connectors from Peter White Cycles. This was to allow 
   me to remove the fender w/o undoing all the wiring. Theoretically, I could 
   have a second wire I connect here and route a different way for a 
   fenderless setup.

Here are some pics.  No pics 
of the HVAC tape. It does the job, though. It's smooth, makes good contact 
with the fenders and is easy to clean.

I think it's pretty slick. The only thing I'm a little worried about is how 
it will hold up in the long term underneath the BB. It's a schmidt wire, so 
it's pretty heavy duty. Still, I might try to cover that portion up with 
some more HVAC tape.

Called HQ--Will was certain they are the heat treated aluminum. That's 
cool. Didn't bother to ask what the "TT" inscription means, though.

Looks like they've been mounted before, but barely used. Seem to be aligned 
and in fine shape. Will's theory was that it was due to an angry break-up. 
My theory is that somehow they wound up on a bike that someone bought on 
Craigslist. The new owner, unaware of the joys of Boscos, let alone their 
monetary value, swapped them out for some "cooler" bars. Im going to throw 
out a guess they were bullhorns, because that kind of person would probably 
do that (maybe it was the dude who yelled "nice girls bike!" that one day 
as I rode by on my Bosco'ed commuter). Anyway that's just a theory, and 
whatever really happened, I hope they're happy now that they purged their 
apartment of a pair of huge bicycle handlebars.

[RBW] Nitto Bar "TT" Markings -- ID help

[Bob B]

"NITTO
B353
520
TT"

That's what's on the pair of Bosco Bars I found atop a pile of trash 
outside an apartment building this morning as I was walking to get a bagel 
and coffee. Pretty good find, right? What I'm wondering about is, what does 
the "TT" marking mean?  I have a pear of 550 cromo boscos on my commuter, 
which have a different looking finish... so which version did I find? I 
realize the red HT sticker would be missing if these were the HT version.

Then a broader question I have is what do the various two letter markings 
designate: I've seen AA, TT, VW, etc? I tried googling this but cant find 
it anywhere. Hope this isn't to annoying a question for this group!

[RBW] Anyone try the new Fairweather Rain Poncho?

[Bob B]

Has anyone tried the Fairweather rain poncho? It looks pretty good; I'm 
particularly interested in the elastic band that will fit snugly over 
Alba's AND a Wald basket!


Which would be awesome, because my Vaude poncho barely covers my bars and 
often blows up out of place (it has no elastic). 


Anyway, been doing more rain riding lately and was considering springing 
for this, and an endorsement from someone on the list would probably cause 
me to buy it.

John G,

Awesome! You're right, there are sections of the OCA that are really 
choppy, where the trail ends and you have to hop off, and find your way 
back to it. Very annoying, I really wish it was more continuous because 
there are not a lot of long, easy dirt trails around NYC.

Glad you had a good ride, though.

Hey Bob, I tried this method on my Boscos and I couldn't get the felt to
