RE: [RBW] Re: OTT: 10 speed X Wide Low(2x)?

Kojaks flat less than any other tires I have.  I’m big (215 pounds) and ride 
over bad pavement.  I get very few flats with the Kojaks.  I get a few more 
flats with the Barlow Pass and Stampedes on my other bikes.  The Compass tires 
are still great tires, fun and fast to ride, but do seem to flat a bit more.  
Not a big deal.

That is a really cool looking setup!

Now I’m envious, gotta do some S24 rides…

I installed the Nitto Hub Area Racks and the Sackville Hub Area Bags just for 
the heck of it. I used P-clamps on the mid fork and it works perfect. Rides 
amazing with a small load. I could easily take this bike overnight camping. I 
think it really shows how versatile Rivendell's are- even the Rodeo.

Cheers, Bruce

Hi Max,

Thanks so much for the positive feedback. I like your color Rodeo better. 
That's my favorite and have seen it on a few of the Hunq's- stunning. I'll be 
honest, the only reason I went to Albatross handlebars is because the 59cm 
frame is just a little too big for me.I wouldn't go through this if it was my 
perfect size bike. I think a 57cm would be the best fit for me and I might get 
one some day. After trying out so many different quill stems/drop handlebar 
reach combinations the bike still looked strange and handled a bit funny with 
the short 50mm stem. I really like Nitto Albatross on my Sam Hillborne and I 
had a set of heat-treated aluminum laying around so I thought I would give it a 
try. Campy only makes 2 shifters for flat bars- bar ends or time trial shifters 
or the ones I opted for which are 10 speed Veloce with integrated brake levers. 
BTW, the braking with these is far, far superior to the road brifters no 
question. The front shifter does not trim- it's more like exact Shimano click. 
But it shifts perfect and better than the road Chorus version. You can run 
triple or double. Mine is set for double. I have a White Industries VBC 
crankset 44 outer/28 inner so it's wide/low compact. I set up the brake cables 
but took it to my LBS to have the shifter cables installed. I purchased the 
Campy 10 speed Veloce flat bar shifter/brake lever combination from Ribble in 
the UK. They were $131 with shipping and no tax and included both sets of 
cables and housing. Not a bad deal and too about 1 week to arrive here in San 
Diego. I hope I was able to answer your questions. Again, I wouldn't go this 
route if the bike fit me properly. I sometimes miss getting in the drops in a 
road bar when I want to spring up hills or decent a hill. I sometimes pack this 
bike in the back of my Honda Accord to take on a business trip. With road bars 
it fit perfect but with Albatross I have to take the quill stem off and on 
which is somewhat of a pain- the Alba's are just too wide to fit in the trunk 
when on the bike.

Cheers,

Bruce

Hi Bruce, I have a question about those Campagnolo flat bar shifters - - 
specifically, can you share your thoughts on how they work with the front 
derailleur shifts?.  Can you trim the front derailleur?

Or is the front shift a "big click," like the Shimanos?

I love the build you did, and would like to try flat bars + Campagnolo flat bar 
shifters on a couple bikes (including a  Roadeo), but I'm not sure how the 
front derailleur would work with my triples and wide range doubles.

That's a great color for your Roadeo, and a nice build.  Mine's a 2010, and 
also has a Campagnolo drive train, hence my interest in your flat bar shifters.

I have to admit, I did a double take on the Pliny the Younger. The bikes are 
nice too. But man, I think its time for a beer ride to share that growler w/ 
the group ;) Please tell me there isn't a bottle or three of Pappy hidden in 
there too.
