[RBW] Re: Help! Chain/tire rub problem with my Susie build
Bottom Bracket spacers are made for exactly that purpose and wont mess up the integrity of the BB as long as you are following the recommended configurations. Having an external bb and 2x12 drivetrain might just inherently conflict with 2.6" tires on this frame unfortunately. What does Riv say is compatible? I wouldnt be surprised if they have a trick to make it work On Thursday, June 25, 2020 at 8:39:33 PM UTC-4, David Wadstrup wrote: > > Hello, > > I've been building my Susie over the past couple of days, and just > discovered I've got an issue with the chain rubbing the rear tire when I'm > in the lowest gear.

Re: [RBW] Re: Speaking of merit badges...Association of Caffeinated Wheelmen
Jinxed, Just saw this video about Google Forms. I haven't dived into it yet, but the video on this link seems to suggest that it could be a simple way for you to get orders gathered up, or at least get an idea of who wants pins/patches, and how many... Not sure this is a perfect solution, but seems pretty organized. Hope it helps David j.david.str...@gmail.com On Thu, Feb 14, 2013 at 7:16 PM, jinxed hbcl...@yahoo.com wrote: David, Hey there!! Yea...I am the ground zero on the ACW. I might have a pin or two stashed away, but I'll have to look. I have already consulted an embroidery company on doing patches after a lengthy and fun chat with Harry Hugel at Rivendell. Jeeze, that was a year ago I think!! Man time just keeps rolling on. I used to be a commercial embroiderer by trade so a patch was always on the burner. The pins were unexpectedly CRAZY popular when I did them and I didnt anticipate the shipping charges well nor a very streamlined ordering process SO that said...I'd be happy to do another lapel pin run, and or patch run, IF I could come up with some officially non-official AND simple way to take orders. Do any of you know an easy way to do this? The last time I took email orders and it was crazy to keep track of as many people use different emails for contact and paypal, not to mention screen names. The solid brass cloisonné pins would need to bump from $6 to $8 if the pricing is the same. They were spendy, and shipping was more than I estimated. I just need to break even...these were for fun, not money. Patch pricing TBD but is usually based on stitch count which is connected to size. Which brings up a question...what size patch?? Based on the design and my experience, minimum would need to be 3 - 3.25 diameter. Too small? Too big?

Jinxed, Any chance you could get more pins? Or get patches made with the ACW logo? On Saturday, May 16, 2009 10:01:41 AM UTC-4, jinxed wrote: OK - I have BLOWN through all that I had. However, first thing Monday morning I will be on the phone to order another full batch. They will take about 2-3 weeks to get to me. Please keep this in mind if you send funds from this point on.

Re: [RBW] Re: Speaking of merit badges...Association of Caffeinated Wheelmen
I have no clue about tracking orders. There's gotta be some sort of Google Doc that might be useful. I would definitely care to order a pin if possible and am still super interested in the patch idea but have no idea how complicated that goes. My only thought is on the ACW blogspot blog, maybe you could post paypal info and advertise a pre-order with a cutoff date. That may have been what you did before. Not sure there is a way to organize a lot of folk at that point though. Thanks again for your help in getting the ball rolling again - I'm very stoked if it works out. Cheers all, David S.

I get in touch with the pin people tomorrow and see what timing and pricing look like now. I will follow up when I have info. I will assume they kept the dies and if production is the same it was @ 3 week turnaround. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Just stumbled upon the ACW pins and I fell in love. What are the chances these could be re-upped. Pins or, even better, patches. I would really be happy to get one of these. Is anybody here the original producer of these goodies?? Let me know. Cheers, David S On Friday, May 15, 2009 7:08:31 PM UTC-4, jinxed wrote: Are you a member? So here is the story...turning the way-back machine to about 1996, some friends and I were sitting over coffee after a ride and started to recount how many times we had done this. As it turned out, it was apparent that not only had the vast majority of our rides (bike, motorcycle, skateboard, snowboard...) started or ended over coffee, but many of our good friends and riding partners were met at the cafes we were frequenting. We had a pretty good network that spanned darn near coast to coast. An Association of Caffeinated Wheelmen I blurted out while simultaneously sketching out a logo on the napkin Fast forward to about 6 months ago, I was digging through some piles of artwork looking for something, and stumbled on my original sketch. All of the patches and hats we had originally done up were long retired, lost, or given away...so I got in touch with some of the original ACW's and told them I was going to mint some lapel pins...everyone chipped in to beat the minimums. Our whole thing was very tongue in cheek, but we wanted it to have an old money-secret society-unleash the hounds type of feel to it. Anyway after finding the iBob's / ROB's and meeting so many awesome people and reading about the network that exists between the riders, I thought it would be cool to expand the ACW. It's all for fun and conversation, and really just a bit of decoration for the bags, hats etc...but wanted to offer them up. I have @ 20-30 or so left of the lapel pins, but we can do more if interest is there. We were also contemplating doing up some patches too? $6/pc shipped to you. Trades for your club pins is good too. For that matter no interesting trade would be turned down. Drop me line hbc...@yahoo.com javascript: or just paypal me there with your info!
