Keith - such great composition on that shot! I love the idea of doing a 
"while riding camera" thread too. I use a Ricoh GR II that works great for 
me.

[RBW] FS: Velo Orange Grand Cru 50.4 BCD Crankset - 46/30

[Bryan Dalik]

Hi all,

Selling my Velo Orange Grand Cru cranks. It's a 46/30 combo and is a really 
gorgeous crankset in person. There's some rubbing on the rear of the 
driveside crank that caused some small scratches, but it is essentially 
brand new as I mounted it, tried to make it work for my bike and then 
realized it wasn't going to. 200 retail, looking for *160$ shipped.*

[RBW] FS: Ultradynamico 700x42 Cava Race, Brooks Flyer "All Terrain", Pletscher Kickstand

[Bryan Dalik]

Hi All,

Selling a few things:

Ultradynamico Cava Race - 700x42 - Great tires with tons of life left. 
Ridden a few hundred miles. Blew out the back tire, but it was filled with 
sealant. Probably fine to ride tubeless, definitely fine to ride with 
tubes. Discounting pretty heavily due to the flatting, but I'm sure they're 
totally fine. *90$ shipped.*

Brooks "All Terrain" Conquest Saddle - Think this is an older version of a 
Flyer I believe. Sprung saddle with some marks of usage and wear. In good 
condition, I recently hit it with a fresh coat of Brooks proofide. *70$ 
shipped.*

Plestcher kickstand - Single leg kickstand pulled off a Clem Smith. In good 
shape. *15$ shipped.*

Photos of all

Thanks so much! Reach out with any questions.

Re: [RBW] FS: Brooks All Terrain saddle, Technomic 50cm stem, Carradice saddlebag

[Bryan Dalik]

It had some squeak to it but I changed the seatpost and it seemed fine? I'm
not entirely sure, I switched it out for a B17 just because I love them so
much and found one cheap. I'd work on price with you if you wanted it.

[RBW] FS: Brooks All Terrain saddle, Technomic 50cm stem, Carradice saddlebag

[Bryan Dalik]

Hi All,

Selling the following:

Brooks All Terrain Sprung saddle - In good shape, a couple of nicks in the 
leather but I conditioned it with Brooks proofide and it's super comfy, 
just not for me. *90$ shipped*

Carradice saddle bag - It's in rough shape, but still perfectly useable. 
This one would need some new straps (can use Voile) for attaching to bike. 
Has a piece of coroplast in there for structure. *30$ shipped*

Nitto technomic 50mm stem - Really good shape, this would be great on your 
drop bar bike for a very comfortable ride. 26.0 clamp. *35$ shipped*

*LINK TO PHOTOS*

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12hLk-ryIn8ifE0XpKAwDkyLBu4tzCF8X?usp=drive_link

Thanks!
Bryan

wear, but is in perfectly fine shape. Looking for *$50 *shipped.

with Shimano Deore LX hub. Been used some, so some brake wear. In good 
shape, perfectly true. Looking for *$110 *shipped.

[RBW] ISO: Swift Industries Peregrine 12L bag

[Bryan Dalik]

Looking for this in black if possible, or something comparable if anyone 
has one they're looking to off load. 

Thanks!

[RBW] FS: Nitto Noodle 54cm, Nitto Technomic 70mm, Silver Chainguard

[Bryan Dalik]

Hi all,

Have some excellent condition parts for sale that didn't work out for my 
build.

120$ - 54cm Nitto Noodle Drop Handlebars - Brand new. Riv is sold out so 
I'm pretty sure they're unavailable from anywhere else. I literally mounted 
them and took them around the block before decided they're too wide for me. 
Some scuffing from mounting onto the stem, but brand new and in packaging. 

50$ - 70cm Nitto Techonmic Stem - 25.4 clamp - ended up needing a 26.0, 
this is also brand new and in original packaging. 

30$ - 38t Silver Chainring guard - I ended up going with a 42t instead so 
this is available and in great shape. Some light use on it. Will work with 
a 36 or 38t outer chainring.

Feel free to contact me. Will cut a deal for a bundle. Thanks!

Bryan

[RBW] Re: Atlantis Old vs New?

[Bryan Dalik]

I just picked up a late 2000's Toyo Atlantis and I've ridden some of the 
longer chainstay more modern Rivendell frames. The biggest difference I 
think would be the chainstays for sure. The ride quality will be in my 
opinion vastly different, as the older Riv's had shorter (still longer for 
the time) chainstays keeping the bike a bit more nimble and quick as 
opposed to being super stable albeit a bit more "clumsy". An Atlantis 2 
with 26" wheels has plenty of possibilities. I'm sure you can clear real 
big tires if you wanted to, or go a more traditional tire with fenders and 
whatnot.

Re: [RBW] Re: Red Toyo Atlantis?

[Bryan Dalik]

That is a wonderful, wonderful Toyo Atlantis. What size tires? Looking to 
see what max is. I got myself a custom orange Toyo Atlantis in a 58 as well 
and being 6'2'' with a 89 PBH, I'm happy to hear it fits so well for you.

Keystone Bicycle Co. 100%. It's one of the better shops in the northeast

Thinking 85$ shipped.

[RBW] Re: The Bombadil on Ebay

['Bryan Dalik' via RBW Owners Bunch]

For anyone that is interested, John Watson of the Radavist scooped up this 
frame super quick (within a few minutes). I sent him a message as he is 
building it up - it's going to get decked out in some very nice retro parts 
as probably a trail centric build. Looking forward to seeing it done.

[RBW] FS: Paul Long Pull Levers & Nitto 65 Seatpost

['Bryan Dalik' via RBW Owners Bunch]

Hi All,

Building up a new Riv and I am parting with some things that won't work for 
it.

wear and some scratches. 155$ Shipped to US

Nitto 65 - 27.2 mm seatpost in great shape, single bolt design. 250mm 
length. Again, some typical wear and scratches but otherwise perfect. 65$ 
Shipped to the US
Any questions, by all means.

Thanks!
Bryan

Re: [RBW] The joy of winter riding, and how do you keep your toes warm?

['Bryan Midlam' via RBW Owners Bunch]

I ride regularly throughout our Northeast Winters and always struggled to 
keep hands and feet warm.  This year I finally figured it out although the 
set up isn't ideal for the beauty of riding a Riv but it works for staying 
warm.  I wear Pearly's Possum Socks under waterproof boots (I could never 
get warm riding clipless so I now only ride flats).  I then use neoprene 
shoe covers.  Mine are now worn out so I am due for a new pair.  For the 
hands I ride in Showers Pass waterproof wool gloves, they are very light 
and make it so you can still easily operate the controls.  Then I have a 
pair of Bar Mitts for my handlebars.  Again, not winning any style contests 
here but if anything, my hands were too warm and I had to vent them.  I 
have heavier gloves that work as well but it's so hard to have the same 
ride feel with huge mittens on.

[RBW] 59cm Atlantis (current model)

[Bryan Quinn]

Hello- I’m wondering if anyone on this list would be kind enough to point me in 
a direction where I can find the current standover height for the 59cm 
Atlantis. The table provided by Rivendell seems to leave it blank, at least the 
ones I have seen. I do realize there is some variation based on tire size so 
there is no perfect answer, just trying to get close. I’ve been able to use a 
website called “bike insights” to compare a 59cm 2019 Atlantis with my current 
non-Rivendell bike, but I’m not sure how accurate it is. Thank you!

[RBW] first impressions of Atlantis

[Bryan Quinn]

Thanks for all these details you provided about your new Atlantis. How do you 
find the standover height for you? I just bought the 59cm and expect it 
sometime in the next few weeks. This will be my first Rivendell. I’m curious 
because my PBH is a shoeless 87.5 and I’m hoping I made the right call. I’ve 
got a longer torso than most and was on the edge between the 55 and the 59.

[RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Tires

[Bryan Kim]

With the understanding that the quality of "suppleness" can be somewhat 
personal/subjective, I personally like the ride quality of my Panaracer 
Pasela PT tires, especially for a bike you intend to use from time to time. 
FWIW, I live in the DMV and run the Paselas on my Bridgestone MB-2 for 
rides around the city, on the Capital Crescent Trail, and even on the C 
towpath - have not flatted yet and the ride quality has been more than 
sufficient for all three situations. As a bonus, the cost is relatively low 
for these tires.

[RBW] Re: Tuning SunRace Thumbies

[Bryan Pizzillo]

Hi all,
First, thank you all for your ideas and feedback, the Clem is now 
shifting/holding gear a *lot* better and any issues with getting to a gear 
are my own now.  For posterity's sake in case some one does a search in the 
future, I just wanted to follow up with what I ended up doing.  

To answer some questions, 

   - the Clem is the complete-build medium, 52cm.  
   - The trouble gears were pretty much in all cogs except for the big and 
   the small, and using the big or small chainring had similar issues.  I do 
   feel like it might have occurred more around the apex of the shifter arc. 
Lets say if the big cog is 1 and the little cog is 8, then it was 6,5 and 
   4.  I don't usually use anything less than 4.
   - Also to note, the issues were not so much on shifting, but riding in a 
   gear for a good ways and then all of a sudden it would skip without 
   warning, usually under load like a hill.  Also it did not skip right when 
   the load increased, oh no, it let me think everything was going to be ok on 
   this hill.  Then bam, a skip and then a fair amount of teeth gnashing and 
   cursing.  Also, the skip did not feel like when you are between two gears, 
   but as if there was no resistance like when have no chain.
   

Anyway, here is what I did:

   1. Checked to make sure the cassette was tight.  It was, and I have a 
   new cassette removal tool to boot.  It was tight...
   2. Put the bike on the stand and tuned it to shift on the clicks like it 
   was indexed.  
  1. Rode it for a number of commutes (around 7mi each way) and a 
  separate 10mi ride.  It was better - at least getting it into gear was 
not 
  as fiddly.  Alas, it was easier to get in gear, and held the gears more 
  often, but would still skip randomly.   Usually only when I was feeling 
  very confident that it would *not* skip because things were going well.
   3. Finally, I checked out Bill's SunRace pictures and noted the Ultegra 
   bar ends would fit.  (Thanks Bill!)  I did not know if my issue was me not 
   liking friction shifting in general or just the SunRace, do I did not want 
   to risk the friction-only Silver shifters.  

So now I am running the "front" (left side) Ultegra bar end shifter on the 
"rear" (right side) SunRace shifter in friction-mode.  Now any issues with 
shifting seem to be mine alone.  I do get the occasional "slip" but it is 
that one where it is jumping between two gears, and it still give some 
resistance when it happens so it is not as jarring.  Once again though, 
this highlights my inability to get to the gear correctly the first time 
and a quick trim fixes it.  I am even being bold and shifting on uphills, 
downshifting and upshifting even.  In the other long thread on the Clem 
(Clemming Around) there has been some discussion if it is the Altus/SunRace 
combo that is the issue.  Who knows, but the Ultegra seems to be smoother 
shifting and does not have the issues.  On the plus side, reusing the SR 
shifter bases saved $60-70 on a pair of Paul Thumbies. 

Thanks again for the help.

- Bryan

[RBW] Re: Stripped CLEM dropout braze-on

[Bryan Pizzillo]

Try mounting it on the braze ons higher up on the seat stays.  Those are 
actually M6 as well.  That is where I mounted a Nitto Mt Campee, albeit I 
had to mount it to the inside, but it was no biggie.  I also found when 
attempting to use M5 bolts and jury rigging on the dropouts that the 
hardware would have interfered with the chain/cassette.  Anyway, everything 
is good on the higher ups.

[RBW] Tuning SunRace Thumbies

[Bryan Pizzillo]

Hi all,

I was lucky enough to get one of the complete Clems and have been able to 
put about 250mi on it so far.  Around the middle of December I had a couple 
of experiences where the chain seemed to slip when peddling and under load. 
 This is my first friction shifting bike, so I thought it was me.  For the 
past couple of weeks though, this has become more frequent and has been 
requiring less of a "load."  By load, it is almost always on a small 
incline, but I have had it happen while spinning in an easy gear as well. 
 The most frustrating aspect is that it is (almost) never right after I 
have shifted, but usually a good 2-3 min after a shift.  You know, just 
enough that I think it is ok and then bam, I am peddling with no 
resistance.  Needless to say this is coloring my flirtation with friction 
shifting and am thinking about going to an indexed 1x11.  

I did do some searching and found similar issues, but not similar reasons 
(old cassettes and chains), I have:

   1. Checked to see if there is a stuck link.  I back pedaled for a while, 
   looking at the derailer and chain and I did not see anything resembling a 
   stuck link.  Then again, I am not a (good) mechanic...
   2. Wiped down the chain, cleaned it, reapplied lube... (in hopes that if 
   it was a stuck link or something it would get relubricated)
   3. NOT dropped the bike or wrecked it on anything.  The derailer looks 
   pretty straight and does not look bent.

Also, to make things slightly more annoying, I cannot get it to skip when 
on the bike stand.  I can get it to jump between chains if I do not shift 
it correctly, but I can't get it to hop off once engaged.  With index 
shifting, it is usually easy to figure out what I need to do.  It either 
gets into gear, or it does not and then I can adjust accordingly.  With 
friction it feels like it probably does not matter much since you move the 
shifter to get it to the right spot.  With the SunRace though, there is the 
ratchet mechanism and I wonder if it not allowing the shifter to stay in 
the position to hold the gear, but instead pulling ever so slightly to get 
into its, um, "naturally ratcheted position?"  Any suggestions would be 
appreciated, also any information on how I should set the derailer barrel 
adjuster and how to set the limits for friction shifting would appreciated. 
 I looked at things like Sheldon's page, but it seems a lot more geared to 
index shifting with an aside here or there on friction shifting.

Thanks,
Bryan

Re: [RBW] Re: Curious: saddle bags versus panniers?

[Bryan]

I was a panniers guy for years. I hesitated for a long time before buying a 
Saddlesack because I was afraid of the convenience issue, and I didn't want 
to leave an expensive bag on the bike when commuting. In reality, it takes 
me about an extra 5 seconds to attach/detach my large Saddlesack than it 
does a pair of panniers, so I think the convenience issue is a bit 
overstated. It turns out that two leather buckles and a bungee ball for the 
underside is all the quick release that I need. As for visibility, the 
reflective strip is super bright, and there's a nice place to hang your 
blinky light. Great bag!!!

[RBW] Re: Platform/Spiked pedals question (gripsters, grip kings, etc.)

[Bryan]

I also don't like that locked-in feel. I haven't tried the Grip Kings, but 
I've found the RMX Sneaker Pedals to have the ideal balance between grip 
and slide. They're cheap, too. In super wet conditions, though, I prefer 
something with spikes.

[RBW] Re: Where do you find the time?

[Bryan]

Great post! I'm married with five kids and a busy job, so I can certainly 
sympathize! Sometimes I read those ride reports and look at photos that 
people post and I get frustrated that I can't be out there more. But then I 
remind myself how lucky I am to be able to commute to work everyday on my 
bike. I'm out there on my Rivendell over an hour a day, five days a week, 
and I bet there are people who post photos of themselves on their bikes in 
amazing places that would be envious of that.  

Short rides around the neighborhood can be lovely as well. So are bike 
trailers for when the kids are little. I'm slowly coming to the realization 
that the kids grow up really fast and that precious weekend time is better 
spent with them (on bikes or not) than off on some 5-hour epic mixed 
terrain ride. I've always had a strong wanderlust, so it's not easy 
sometimes, but I'm trying my best to keep things balanced. 

Patrick - It's nice to hear about your relationship with the Sabbath. I 
keep the Jewish Sabbath, and while that causes me to miss many a Saturday 
So Cal Riv ride, I'm all the richer for it.

I think the bottom bracket might be a bit low for riding fixed, but 
singlespeed would work. A few years ago, I called Riv to see if I could 
snag one of the last Quickbeams.They said that the QBs were all gone but 
that they would build up a singlespeed Sam for me. I declined (and wound up 
finding a QB later), but I think the world is ready for a SS Sam. Bring it!

Re: [RBW] How cold was your first day ride?

[Bryan]

It was in the high 40s in LA when I headed up to Franklin Canyon this 
morning on the QB. Switched to 32/19 at Coldwater Canyon Park and rode up 
the hill, goofed around in the dirt a little and then came back home. I was 
in full Riv kit - MUSA knickers, wool t-shirt, chambray button-down and 
wool gloves. Perfect for most of the ride, but then a bit too warm towards 
the end as the sun gained strength. It was close to 60 by the time I got 
home, headed for a high in the mid-70s once again. It's been so warm and 
sunny in So Cal lately. I feel guilty.

Re: [RBW] Re: Car and Bikepacking Ideas for January-February

[Bryan]

The desert in Southern California can get pretty cold at night. Much of 
Joshua Tree National Park is high desert, and you can easily have lows in 
the teens there this time of year. I would head for lower elevations if 
possible. Anza-Borrego State Park is really nice. Coastal areas will be 
much warmer at night, but it's hard to find peace and quiet in coastal So 
Cal. Santa Cruz Island is a wonderful place, though, and very quiet.

[RBW] Re: Advice on choosing a warm coat. Slight topic drift.

[Bryan]

Hi, Hugh

For hanging out around the campsite, down is the way to go. I have a North 
Face down jacket that I wear with a couple of layers of wool underneath on 
chilly winter boy scout camping trips in the So Cal mountains. For cycling, 
though, down is totally overkill. Back in my Wisconsin days, two or three 
layers with a windbreaker on top was all I needed down to about 0F. As 
stated above, the key for staying warm while riding is keeping your head, 
hands and feet warm and breaking the wind.

[RBW] So Cal Riders - CicLAvia this Sunday?

[Bryan]

Hi, folks

Does anyone want to ride CicLAvia this Sunday? Information about the ride 
is here: http://www.ciclavia.org/events/683/heart-of-la/693/about.

The ride is scheduled from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. It's too chaotic at these 
events to find anyone mid-ride, so I was thinking we could meet at one of 
the Hubs early in the day and ride together. I'm partial to the MacArthur 
Park hub because I'm planning on riding from home and that's the closest 
one. How about a 9:30 a.m. meet-up at the corner of 7th and Alvarado and a 
roll-out at 10:00 a.m.? I'm also open to meeting earlier - I'm going to 
have to head home around 2:00 for family stuff later in the day. 

I hope some of us can ride together!

[RBW] Re: Too small MB-3, need help with Dirt Drop, bar rec's

[Bryan]

Hi, Tim 

I'm about the same size as you. I ride a 60cm Hillborne and a 64cm 
Quickbeam, which both fit great. I had a 21 late-'80s Stumpjumper for a 
while, but ultimately it was just too small for comfortable 'round-town 
riding. Then I found virtually the same bike in a 23 size, and that's 
worked out very well for my needs (bad weather/dark winter night 
commuting/hauling kids in a trailer). Alba bars work perfectly with the 
stock stem. There aren't a whole lot of 23 old MTBs out there, but it's 
worth it to find the right size if old MTBs are your thing. I still 
wouldn't want to spend more than a couple of hours on it, but it's fun for 
short rides. 

http://www.flickr.com/photos/bwedgar/9776886243/

Good luck!

Re: [RBW] Re: Now taking a poll for the month of September SoCal Riv Ride Santa Monica

[Bryan]

Not sure about the parking situation. I ride to that area from my house 
(I'm spoiled). If you're going up Westridge, another option would be to 
meet at Peet's at the corner of San Vicente and Gorham in Brentwood. That's 
all City of LA street parking around there and might be more forgiving than 
Santa Monica. Then you'd ride San Vicente a few blocks west to Burlingame, 
to a short descent down Sunset Blvd. to Mandeville Canyon and then up 
Westridge. Gets you into the nice stuff pretty quickly. Coming back to your 
cars up San Vicente from the PCH is good because there's a great bike lane 
on San Vicente.

Thanks, Hugh! Sept. 29th works best for me, but the 22nd might work as well.

[RBW] Re: Haines to Skagway on the Yves Gomez

[Bryan]

Hugh,

Funny - I spent the summer of 1990 in Delta Junction, AK, working on an 
archaeological dig. Maybe we crossed paths that summer. Alaska will never 
leave my consciousness, either. The place really makes an impression.

I remember seeing a guy that summer travelling through on a bicycle bound 
for Massachusetts. At the time, I thought that was nuts!

 Skagway. I then journeyed over White Pass up to Whitehorse then Dawson and 
 over to Anchorage AK it has never left my consciousness . I have been 
 dreaming of getting back one of these days! Thanks for sharing.

 The Yves Gomez looks good loaded.

Re: [RBW] good ride

[Bryan]

Erik, 

  
Thanks for your photos. With young kids at home and a demanding office job 
down here in LA, your photos remind me that there's a big and beautiful 
world out there. I get by on my daily commute and the occasional two-hour 
ride into the local mountains on a weekend, but it's good to know that the 
Sierras are still there.

Ben's is the place to go in Milwaukee, that's for sure. They stock an

[RBW] Re: Conversion to Albatros Bars... maybe

[Bryan]

I'd just go with the Betty with some Albas. From what I understand, those 
1980s Sequoias had some really steep seat tube angles, so getting that 
thing comfortable in a non-racey sort of way may never happen. The Betty 
will allow her to sit up and rotate everything back which will help with 
the neck pain and possibly with the chafing as well.

Re: [RBW] Re: Interesting discussion: Riv bikes v. BQ bikes

[Bryan]

I've never given this whole debate much thought. I like Rivendell bikes 
because when I manage to squeeze two or three hours out of my busy schedule 
on a weekend for a ride in the local mountains, I want to ride a road 
bike that will take me anywhere, including rocky trails if the notion 
grabs me. I hardly ever ride with other people, so speed is irrelevant. For 
commuting, I've been doing the rear load thing for at least 20 years (I 
still use my early '90s Overland panniers every day!), so the idea of a 
front load bike doesn't do much for me, although it seems that people carry 
front loads on Rivs and they seem to work fine for that, too.

[RBW] Re: What'r you using for cush on your Moustache Bars under your tape?

[Bryan]

I like them, too. I'm hooked on Noodles because of all the available hand 
positions, but the immediate brake access on the m-bars can't be beat for a 
hectic commute. I originally bought them for commuting in cold weather. You 
can wear big mittens on them and still negotiate the brakes levers - 
something that's too clumsy for drop bars. I have a pair sitting bike-less 
in my garage. One of these days, I'll give them another try.
