[RBW] Your Boulder and Rivendell compare/contrast.
I have had an OS Boulder all road .7/.4/.7 top tube .8/.5/.8 down tube Now I have a standard tubed Boulder all road .8/.5/.8 top tube .9/.6/.9 down tube. Both are 61cm center to top. Both are as light a tubeset as Mike was comfortable going with for the frame size and the rider (me ~170 lb.). Both ride amazingly well. Yes, the plane ;-). There are some possible subtle differences that might just be in my head since I never rode them back to back so take this with a grain of salt. The OS bike felt just a little more sure footed and maybe just a smidge harsher. Not in a bad way. the standard bike feels a bit smoother and the flex a bit more gradual. Hard to really describe. It still feels sure footed but in a lighter touch sort of way that might take some brief getting used to. Both are fantastic. I'd likely go standard tubed again in the same gauges (not lighter) if I had to do it over, but you won't go wrong with either. Key thing is to talk to Mike. He knows what he is doing and will steer you right. Clayton Scott SF, CA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Bullmoose bars and width, who cut theirs?
Don't cut them. ;-). By today's MTB standards the bars are already narrow. Move break levers inward so you can just reach them with your index finger from the end of the grip and tape up the rest. I use the full length of my bars. The width is great for descending (and climbing) but make sure you adjust your arms to an elbows out position. Will give lots of control and absorb shocks better.

Re: [RBW] Re: Your Boulder and Rivendell compare/contrast.
I am well aware of the Herse brand. (No longer Kone's btw.). That being said a Herse will not ride inherently more plush than a Boulder so I was wondering if there was another brand he is involved in. Right now all I know of is Boulder. I might be misunderstanding the use of the word plush though which is what prompted the my question in the first place. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Nitto Light Mount: Side question.
I am left guy myself. That being said in the past I have run it on teh right and it was fine too. On Wednesday, May 13, 2015 at 4:26:34 PM UTC-7, Patrick Moore wrote: Right side, for me. I prefer to mount my lights above and centered to the fork crown, since this avoids a big wheel shadow, but in practice, mounting it on the right and below the top of the tire or fender, the shadow has not been a real problem.

I like it on the right because it illuminates a little better the sometimes ragged and debris-strewn right edge of the road, which is always near my tire.

I think the smallest smal ring you can get on a 110 is 33T, IIRC. Currently running 28T on a 74 bcd on my triple converted to wide low double, with 34 in the back With the current config, 44/28 in back and 11-34 9 speed in , I have from 104.0 down to 21.4 With a proposed config of 48/33 in front and 11-40 in back I get from 113.5 down to 21.5. So basically the low end stays the same, I don't have to use geek doubles anymore, and I get 113.5 on the top end. The only downside is that the cassette has a 17 to 21 jump on it, which is a 23.5% jump, pretty large for a single gear shift. The current 9 speed has a 17 to 20 jump on it which is a more manageable 17.6%. So maybe I should be thinking 11 speed 11-40. Ha ha. The reason I want 113.5 on the top end is that in tailwind situations on brevet rides I have had problems gearing out at 104 inches. If I could pedal to a little higher speeds in tailwinds especially in rolling terrain like we have here in the Texas Hill Country, that would help me keep up with my friends a little better. Grant is probably shaking his head now but hey cycling is a big tent. Of course being able to get the gearing I want on the low end using a 110bcd double is reason enough in of itself for me. I just have to solve the problem with the big gap in the cassette.

[RBW] Re: Tips for Quick beam for long, mountain rides
I think longer ss rides are best accomplished with the just do it approach. Ideally make it an official ride. I have found Brevets to be ideal for this. You can ride at your own pace but there is still enough shame involved to make you not want to quit ;-). Gearing is somewhat personal. I used 42x18 for last month's 300k and found it too low. 42x17 would have been nicer. Remembering that it does not need to be fun to be fun can help too Best, Clayton, SF -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Tim, The bike performance is what had me doubting the most. It wasn't until late December that I started feeling like my old self again riding-wise. That was almost 2 months after I started. That being said none of the rides were longer than 5 hours. Planning on a few Brevets this year - we'll see how it goes. Good luck on the r12!

[RBW] Re: Anyone doing the EBDJ Wednesday Challenge?
Just adding my experiences to this. Been doing the eating part since mid October 2014. Added kettlebell and convict conditioning in November 2014. To date I dropped 23 pounds and am able to do more sit-ups, pull-ups, push-ups, and squats than ever before. Blood pressure, blood work, etc. was deemed really good by any standard by the doctor earlier this month (not that I was ever told it was bad, but it was still nice to hear). Mid November I went for one of my standard rides and felt like crap logging some of my worst times ever. Early January I did the same ride again and broke almost every personal record feeling great. In addition instead of my usual hammer bar an hour I was fine riding on half a banana for 4 hours. We will see how 12+ hour rides go, but so far so good. It does take time to adapt but for me it has been totally worth it at least so far. In terms of calories I don't worry much. I eat when hungry, drink when thirsty. Dinner was bacon with Brussel sprouts, onions, and egg. The kids had seconds and asked if we could have this again tomorrow.

Re: [RBW] Considerations for losing the front deraileure
Get a CLUTCH type Shimano xt rear der and wide range 10sp mtb cassette (like an 11-36 or some such). Pair that with a small (30-36 or so) wolftooth (or other narrow/wide ring) front ring and you won't drop the chain.

I feel like there's a lot of you Oakland/Berkeley members on here, some of you must be riding on weekends and fit within my style and timeframe of riding? Or is there something like this already exists (besides Manny's rides which look totally awesome but would take too much out time and energy out of my weekend)? Would be nice to meet up and ride with some like minded folk. More of a social gathering with some medium duty riding mixed in. Maybe beers mixed in at the end? One of my highlights this year was Entmoot. So much fun to meet fellow Rivendell owners from all over. I've also enjoyed getting to know the Rivendell employees, and fellow riders through the list and buying/selling things locally. Would love to organize something where we meet up more regularly, for a more casual, social ride setting. And by 'organize' i mean that in the absolute loosest sense of the word. Last thing I want to be responsible for is any sort of official group with insurance and waivers, etc. I typically go for rides out of Rockridge (up tunnel road, snake rd, or shasta in Berkeley, and figure it out from there) on Saturday or Sunday mornings around 9:00 or 9:30 for around 3-4 hours (road, trail, mixed)...usually, sometimes longer, sometimes shorter when time is tight. Other times I'll go to N. Bay or further out in the East Bay (over the peak and into Mt Diablo/Shell Ridge area) and find some routes there: road or trails. I'm not very fast. Touring pace. Home in time for lunch and a beer. I do this almost every week (rockridge departure) so could be a weekly thing if enough people are interested. I'm not big on being out more than 4-5 hours or so, 4 hours is my sweet spot. My thought is a once a month thing (like first saturday or sunday?) If enough interest I can just setup a google group and we can take it from there. Just gauging interest for now or seeing if something else is already out there. Maybe an inaugural ride starting at the Rockridge BART the weekend of Jan 3 or 10? I think I already have some travel the first few weeks of Feb so could already be a rocky start for the second month, but happy to make some amends for the greater good where I can. Possible overnighter meet ups as well? Let me know, PM or reply to thread. Disclaimer: my main road ride is actually not a Rivendell, but a Gunnar (outfitted with a front rack and sackville trunk bag of course), though I have three rivendells now for trail (hunqapillar), commute (cheviot), and single speeding (QB) that I can take out to fit in :) Unless someone wants to trade me an AHH. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

One thing to note - recent xt model derailers (at least mine) no longer have the floating upper pulley. So flipping pulleys will have no effect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Speed Wobble on Big Rivs?
A needle bearing headset often cures a shimmy. Miche primato is cheap enough to give it a try. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
