[RBW] A different Mustache/Albastache set-up?

2020-07-20 Thread CharlieG
I have my Quickbeam set up with Albastache bars with some Velo Orange grand cru 
city levers which fit 23.8mm bars. These ones, I think:

Works pretty nicely.

[RBW] Re: Kid/Haulin’ Trailer Recommendations for Clem.

2020-06-02 Thread CharlieG
I’ve been pulling my twins in a Thule Chariot 2-kid trailer for the last couple 
of years. They just turned three and still fit - tightly. I’ve found it to be 
pretty good. It also works okay for hauling a case of beer home from the bottlo 
(sans kids, obvs).

[RBW] FS in Australia - 62cm Hunqapillar

2019-07-28 Thread CharlieG
Hi all

Selling the hunq frameset I bought off here a few years ago and have shamefully 
never even unwrapped. Astonishingly, having two-year-old twins limits my time 
for bikes and other hobbies. Who knew? 

Having paid to get the thing posted across the Pacific it's almost certainly 
not worth posting it back to the States, so probably for Australian viewers 
only. Happy to discuss if one of you is very set on buying a Hunq this week, 
though. 

The price probably looks horrifying to American readers, but it's in Australian 
dollars!

Ebay link here: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/223601868085

Cheers

Charlie

[RBW] Do you have a ROHLOFF hub on your bike ?

2018-08-07 Thread CharlieG
I’ve got one on my Hunqapillar. Love it. Built the wheel and installed it 
myself, which was easy except for putting the cables around the little bobbin 
in the external shifting mechanism. Have one of the torque arms mounted along 
the chainstay, which is good now that it’s double bolted in place - on my first 
install the torque arm twisted while in a low gear. Admittedly I weigh >120kg, 
which is like 1000lb...

I tow my 15 month old twins to daycare with the Hunqapillar three days a week. 
I must get around to posting pictures of my bikes, half of which I bought from 
people on this list.

[RBW] FS - Orange Quickbeam complete - 64 c-to-c

2018-04-24 Thread CharlieG
Noting Matt B’s view on whether this is a 64 or 66 in Riv’s sizing, would you 
mind measuring the standover height?

At the risk of getting myself into trouble, how would you feel about 
international shipping (to Australia)? Ruinously expensive, but needs must. 

Cheers

Charlie

[RBW] Re: FS: 62cm Rivendell Simpleone $1200 shipped, and more (thinning the herd)

2016-07-25 Thread CharlieG
Hi John

What's the rough stand over height on the SimpleOne - I can't find a geometry 
chart anywhere that includes stand over. Rusty trigonometry indicates about 
91cm, but I could be well off. 

Second and possibly more problematic question - would you be prepared to post 
it internationally (for some extra money, of course). 

Cheers

Charlie
