[RBW] FS: BIg Agnes and TarpTent Tents, Sleeping Pad, Ortlieb Gravel-Pack Panniers, etc.

[Eric Douglas]

 

As is my habit, my purchases are more aspirational then practical—which is 
why I’m putting up for sale two tents, three sleeping pads and a set of 
panniers. All are new.

 

Prices include shipping.

If asking prices seem to be out of line, feel free to make offers.

[Eric Douglas]

 

A few months ago I started a thread about hip/knee pain and crank length.  I’ve 
since seen a few specialists, started physical therapy and changed  my 
cranks from 170 to 165. 

 

So, I’m selling a bunch of cranks, along with some other stuff.

[RBW] Re: Question off topic mostly

[Eric Douglas]

As to the handing of small wheeled folding bikes, I find that tire width 
make a huge difference.

I have Schwalbe Big Apple 20 x 2.15 tires on both my Bike Friday Llama and 
Swift Folder.  No problems at all doing a week long tour or a century on 
the Llama.

Both bikes came with more narrow tires, and the handling suffered.  As far 
as I can tell, the wider tires stabllize the steering,

46 Nitto "Dream" bars. Works for me for everything but singletrack.

Love em' enough so that I stocked up on them when they became hard to find.

Re: [RBW] Re: Bike Trainer Thoughts

[Eric Douglas]

A couple of additional thoughts:

Yes, trainers are boring.  Music  or Netflix works for me.

Interval training can make for a short & productive workout.

Trainer specific tires make a difference-- besides saving wear on your road 
tires, they are quieter and slip less.

[RBW] FS: What’s left and price drops-- Bilenky Frame, 700c Dynamo Wheelsets & Tires, Acorn Boxy Bag, etc.

[Eric Douglas]

 Thanks to all who have helped me downsize my collection.  I have one last 
frame use I’d like to try to move out before I leave on Tuesday  for my 
summer travels through Montana and Oregon. I’m also selling some of the 
parts and accessories I was going to use with the frame.

wheelset.  Perfectly true with sidewalls in perfect condition (no wear) 
Asking 320.

 

Second wheel  set:  700c Mavic 719 Rims laced to a  older model  SON  dynamo

heel clearance.  Braze-ons for racks, fenders, four water bottles, etc. 1”

I also have enough parts to make a complete bike.

[RBW] FS: S Coupled 700c Bilenky Tourer

[Eric Douglas]

 

Continuing my downsizing, I’m putting my S Coupled  700c Bilenky Tourer 
up for sale.  When I asked Stephen Bilenky to design it, I more or less 
wanted something with a similar ride as my Rivendell Atlantis, but with 
fillet brazing instead of ornate lugs,  curved seatstays for heel 
clearance, a bit more standover and S couplers.  It has served me well on 
some longish tours (3 weeks unsupported)  and many day rides. Stephen build 
it with his highest level of finish (“signature”) and the frame new would 
cost with couplers about $3800

 

There are no dents, dings or anything more than  a few 2-3 mm chips in the 
powdercoat.

 

The frame includes brazeons for 4 water bottle cages, front and rear racks 
and fenders,  as well as a pump peg and chain hanger.

 

Chris King headset installed.

 

Some measurements:

 

Clearance for  true 45mm tires plus fenders.

72 degree seat tube and head tube angles.

BB Drop 80mm

Seat Tube c-c 53cm

Top tube c-c 57cm

Chainstays: 45.5 cm

26.8 seatpost (included)

 

For fit reference: I’m 5’ 11”,  and have a 84cm PBH. 

 

Photos  at:

 

https://www.flickr.com/photos/147685640@N03/albums/72157682028249332

 

I also have enough parts to fully build up the bike.

 

Please feel free to ask questions, make suggestions, etc.

 

Asking 1400 and open to offers.

 

Eric Douglas in hot and humid Brooklyn.

[RBW] Re: Platform Pedal Recommendation for Sam

[Eric Douglas]

I used to use VP Vice pedals  but switched to Fyxation Mesa's in nylon 
because they're much less likely to bloody my shins. No loss in grip as far 
as I can tell.

[RBW] Re: On downsizing (and the 1 bike, and 650b)

[Eric Douglas]

I just want to second the idea of getting two sets of wheel for that one 
bike and *to make sure that the rims have the same width*--will make wheel 
changes much easier.

[RBW] Re: FS: Wheelsets and tires, 700c and 26, What's Left

[Eric Douglas]

 

Folks—

 

Here's what's left.  Please feel free to make offers.


I have a bunch of wheelsets and that I’d like  put on the block. 

 

I’d be willing to break up a wheelset if just a front or rear is needed.

 

Shipping for wheels  would be via Bike Flights, between $20-40, depending 
on how far from NYC.

 

All rear hubs are 135 spacing.

 

Mounted tires and cassettes are not included.

[RBW] FS: Wheelsets and tires, 700c and 26, Dynamo and otherwise

[Eric Douglas]

 

Folks—

 

I have a bunch of wheelsets and that I’d like  put on the block. 

 

I’d be willing to break up a wheelset if just a front or rear is needed.

 

Shipping for wheels  would be via Bike Flights, between $20-40, depending 
on how far from NYC.

 

All rear hubs are 135 spacing.

 

Mounted tires and cassettes are not included.

[RBW] FS: Three Bilenky Frames and Two Surlys

[Eric Douglas]

 

Folks—

 

I’m now really seriously downsizing my collection and am putting  these 
five frames  up for sale. Asking prices are for the frames and any listed 
accessories. The parts installed in the photos, along with the wheels, will 
eventually be on sale, but for now I’m hoping to sell the frames first. 
However, I’d be willing to leave parts on the frame if so requested and I 
have lots of components that I could sell cheap-- pretty much everything 
you might need to build up a complete bike.

 

After I sell the frames, I have a bunch of wheesets, tires  and components 
that I’ll put on the block. 

 

Please feel free to make offers or ask for parts for the frames.

 

Shipping would be via Bike Flights, between $40-100, depending on how far 
from NYC.

[RBW] Re: Compass on tour?

[Eric Douglas]

 Another date point:

I've done about 1500m touring in Montana and New England on Barlow Passes 
EL without a flat--and I weigh more than you do.

On the other hand, if I absolutely wanted to avoid flats I might consider 
Schwalbe Marathon Supremes.

[RBW] Re: Riv-ish rides in metro NYC area?

[Eric Douglas]

John:

I think most of the best rides are to be had by taking Metro North up to 
either Pougkeepsie or Wassaic. Some great quiet country roads to be had up 
there.

And of course there's the Crouton Aqueduct Trail...

Feel free to PM me if you want specific route suggestions.

[RBW] Re: Secondary Levers and V-Brakes

[Eric Douglas]

I use the levers that David mentions on a couple of my bikes. One set has 
seen about 4000 miles of frequent braking and still works perfectly.

No reason to spend more IMO.

Eric



Tektro makes them or made them at some point. Here's an eBay listing for 
them:

I vaguely recall Riv stocking these at some point in the past.

[RBW] Re: NYC Rivs

I'm in Williamsburg, not retired, but am happy to see people who don't 
think that my bike obsession is all that peculiar.
