[RBW] Re: Rivendells in South Korea

[Ezri Rose]

Hi Marcus,
I've been eating up all your videos ever since your channel was linked here 
before! How did you discover Rivendell?  Was it back home in England or 
there in South Korea? Is there a Riv dealer in Seoul? A bike shop visit 
would be an interesting video, especially if they have Riv or similar stuff.

[RBW] Re: WTB: A pair of King Iris cages

[Ezri Rose]

Hi Eric,
I'm looking to replace my Iris cages with ones that would hold a Nalgene. 
Don't suppose you would have any to trade do you?

[RBW] Re: When the Rivs are sold out and you need a bike for daily commuting...

[Ezri Rose]

That looks like it could be a good around-town bicycle. What did you change 
on it? Will it take a front and/or rear rack?
I've been car-free since 2020, most of that time was in Denver. Now I'm in 
Florida, but if you need any winter commuting advice, I've learned a thing 
or two. Good luck on your car-free journey!

Pirateship looks like it might even be cheaper than eBay's discounted 
rates, thanks for the tip!

Thank you all for the wonderful advice, this will help tremendously. Nick, 
when you say wrapped, you really meant it, that tyre looks like it's for a 
Brompton it's so small! Now I'm confident that I can ship these without 
damage or an exorbitant shipping fee.

Re: [RBW] Tire shipping advice

[Ezri Rose]

Eric, when you say folded, is that over in half once? I shipped something 
out yesterday, and the post office rounded up one dimension from 12.1 
inches to 13, and that made the price jump from $24 to 41, so every inch is 
counting these days!

[RBW] Tire shipping advice

[Ezri Rose]

Does anyone have experience shipping wire bead tyres? I have some 26" 
studded Schwalbe Marathon winter tyres I would like to sell. But I have no 
idea how to ship them. It's probably not good for them to fold them, right? 
Selling them locally isn't an option, as I've moved from Colorado to 
Florida 
Ezri,
Merritt Island, FL

Yes! I've just seen yours and Weston's messages. I'll check on the shipping 
and then PM you.
