Tim, you should be good to go. The RH 44s generally run small. I've fit

[RBW] ISO/WTT - 54cm Nitto Noodle

[J C]

Greetings all!

I missed out on the wider noodle bars (my preferred shape) when they were 
available and tried to fill their place with the RM-013 and Salsa 
Cowchipper.

I quickly realized they werent for me so they have been sitting for some 
time.

Maybe someone has a 54cm Noodle they are willing to trade?

I have for trade:

46cm Nitto Noodle - Ridden but in good shape, removed all bar tape residue, 
standard scratches on the sleeve/clamp. Love this shape but need more width.

52cm Nitto RM-013 - New, mounted but never ridden

52cm Salsa Cowchipper - New, mounted but never ridden

660mm Nitto Wavie Bar - New, mounted but never ridden. Opted for the Nitto 
Juan Martin bar instead.

If anyone is interested I can provide photos etc.

Much appreciated,

James in Santa Barbara, CA

Re: [RBW] Re: Exploration: Make your own pump peg

[J C]

I like the QR idea.

However, on my 2020 Appaloosa the dropout design prevents a shimano QR 
lever from easily closing at an angle other than forward or backward, 
approximately level to the ground.

Curious if a similar design is used on other newish models?

 I read Will's post about how to make your own pump peg on the Blug a 
 long while back: 

 https://rivbike.tumblr.com/post/185595499869/how-to-make-your-own-pump-pegs

 You take a p-clamp, some spacers and modify a Nitto strut and you've 
 got a pump peg somewhere you might not have had one before. Will likes to 
 put his in the rear triangle and you'll notice them mounted this way on a 
 lot of his bikes.  

 [image: tumblr_inline_pt3zzjpbXk1qdvnvk_500.jpg]
 [image: tumblr_inline_pt401jwzC21qdvnvk_500.jpg]

 This is great, I love it, cool hack! But I've always wanted for a 
 version that doesn't require tracking down and destroying a Nitto strut. 
 Riv HQ is probably awash in Nitto struts and they have em poking out of 
 the 
 coffee cans on everyone's desk all over the place. But not so for me, 
 Nitto 
 struts are precious few in my shed. 

 I think I came up with the right shape and this weekend I picked up an 
 electrical ring terminal in the 10-12 size, yellow sleeve. 

 [image: Screen Shot 2023-01-17 at 9.56.39 PM.png][image: Screen Shot 
 2023-01-17 at 9.56.44 PM.png]

 Holding the ring end with one pair of pliers you can easily remove the 
 yellow sleeve with a second pair of pliers. A pack of 15 is $4.50. If your 
 local hardware store has a bulk/loose hardware section you can get one for 
 around 55¢ (at least I did). 

 Paired with a 3/8" insulated cable clamp (2 for $2.20), a few serrated 
 brake washers, an M5 bolt and a nylock nut I had a fashioned a pump peg. 
 Didn't have to cut or shape any metal or destroy any high-end Japanese 
 rack 
 struts.

 I have yet to SUPER TEST this out but wanted to share all the same.

[RBW] WTB - FFH or Complete for 82cm PBH

[J C]

Good morning!

After riding a Miyata tourer and Specialized Rockhopper with Rivendell 
inspired modifications over the past few years, I am looking for a 
Rivendell to call my own. 

My riding consists primarily of commuting and day rides on road and light 
trails here in Santa Barbara, CA and the surrounding areas.

As the title says, a complete bike or frame could work as I've already 
acquired quite a few parts in the process of converting my current bikes.

Feel free to reply on or off list, thanks!!

[RBW] WTB VO Constructeur Front Rack or similar for 61cm Bleriot

[J C]

I'm interested in using the VO Constructeur Front Rack to hold a basket or 
bag on a recently built up 61 cm Bleriot.

Can anyone share their experience using this rack? It seems pretty straight 
forward as far as racks go.

I believe I'd need the version that has the flat and adjustable plate at 
the fork crown mount and would prefer the bottom tangs to be uncut so I can 
mess with placement.

Feel free to message off list if you have one you are willing to part with 
or if you have something similar that may work.

Thanks!

James

[RBW] WTB front rack... Nitto, Pass and Stow, etc

[J C]

Took advantage of the end of the year coupon and was able to pick up a 62 
Hillborne a few weeks ago. I have it pretty dialed in so far but i'm in 
need of front rack. I usually carry a fair amount of junk in a basket up 
front so the bike feels a bit naked at the moment and my saddlebag is 
stuffed. I prefer the look of a mark's rack or pass and stow up front but 
would consider a nitto big front rack or something similar. anybody have 
something to get rid of?

thanks in advance,
james

[RBW] WTB Rivendell in the 60- 62cm range

[J C]

Hey there bunch. Hope you all are having a nice holiday season. I've been 
saving my ducats and am now officially in the market for my first 
Rivendell.  I've ridden a 62 cm Sam on road and trails and it felt great so 
thats my starting point. 

60 or 62 Sam would be great although I wouldn't mind the increased 
clearance of a 61 Atlantis, or the classic stylings of a 63 Homer.

If you're looking to sell a frame or complete along those lines let me know 
on here or through PM. 

Im located in Santa Barbara, CA so SoCal or Bay Area would be ideal for 
test rides and pickup. Shipping wouldn't be much of problem either.

Okay, thats all. thanks!

Re: [RBW] Re: Blug post

I had a glimpse of the frame. It has a lug, and my, what a lug it is. For 
those worried about the TIG welding there's another detail that might cause 
an uproar. I doubt this is the future direction they're headed, just 
something they wanted to do and are doing.

[RBW] SUZUE Bearing Replacement

[J C]

These bearings are super easy to service.

We use to use two or three old spokes and a solid axel to drive out the
bearings.  You can make a press with some threaded stock and a couple of
washers, sockets and bolts.Just make sure you are pressing on the outer
race when you install them.

You can also use a block or wood and carefully press them back into the hub
shell with c clamps or careful use of a hammer.

 Suzue/.Sunshine/Suntour sealed bearing hubs required a special tool
to
 pull the bearings that Loose Screws used to sell. Do they still? Good
 question.

I think you want this bearing puller:

Interesting series of user reviews at Road Bike Review:


 http://www.roadbikereview.com/mfr/rivendell-bicycle-works/commuter-bike/PRD_440118_6514crx.aspx

I noted the repeated praise of it's stability in turns; rather odd, no,
given the tendency to flop at low speeds uphills (unweighted rear
except for
rack and unladen Packers)? Or do these traits somehow go hand in hand?

At any rate, it does carve corners nicely until you sit up and beg
while you
twiddle a 31 gear up a steep hill. (I am so used to forcing fixed
gears up
hills that perhaps I'm just unused to this sort of bike behavior.)

Perhaps -- just perhaps! -- my next bike will be a Sam Hill that can
take
the 65 mm wide tires off of the Monocog yet ride decently with 40 mm
tires.
And fit fenders. Hmmm: Schlumpf Mountain Drive for off roading and pass
hunting; add another wheelset with that new Shimano 8 sp hub for
touring
 Mm

[RBW] paul's racer brakes vs cantis questions

[J C]

Hello hip listers,


Do any of you use the Paul's racer or the racer m(edium) brakes? How would
you compare them to the neo retros?  Do you know if the racer m brake works
if the centerpull is a bit skewed to one side or another- eg is the spring
tension on the brakes adjustable on both sides?  They look like it in the
photos.

Do you have any brake squeal issues using the racers?  Have you seen any
chain stay mounted versions- are they just glorified u brakes?  Would you
buy them again?  Are you using them on 700c wheels?

Thanks for the help

Bridgestone recalled a bunch of the XO forks- make sure the one you have

bought.  I can't recall how to identify the new vs recalled fork is off

 Thanks for mentioning this.  I hadn't noticed that issue specifically.

 I don't have time to dig deeply into the issue tonight, so here's the
 nickel
 tour of the issue:

 It appears that Google Groups has been having an issue with the standard
 search function related to the groups.  There is no official word on an
 expected fix.

 All the posts of this group are still available.  You can find them if you
 go to the group page, then click on About This Group.  There is a tally
 by
 month of the posts to this group.  You can click on each number to see that
 month's posts.

 The current specific workaround seems to be by using the Google Groups
 Advanced Search page - http://groups.google.com/advanced_search?q=;

 If you use this search, it will generate a result which includes posts back
 to the beginning of this group.

 NOTE - When using the Google Groups Advanced Search page, you will need to
 enter the specific name of this group:  rbw-owners-bunch

 Hope that helps.  More info as I know more.

 - Jim

 Chris,

 I had a fork shudder issue on my Atlantis.  I my case it was a set of
 brakes that had no toe adjustment (other than bending something) and
 had a lot of clearance between the cantilever post on the fork and the
 bushings in the brakes (loose fit on the studs).

 The lack of proper toe adjustment would set up a vibration that was
 bad enough to shudder the fork/bike.  I changed brakes, now everything
 is happy as can be :-)

 I have had incorrect toe settings on other brakes and they generally
 just get noisy.

  The problem is the stick-slip cycle.  You can try cleaning the rim
  very thoroughly, changing brake pads, even changing brakes.
  Sometimes that works.  The problem lies in the fork legs twisting and
  flexing, causing the brakes to grab then slip then grab then slip
  then grab then slip...  Maybe installing a brake booster would stop
  it.

 Yes, on my Surly LHT with the exact same brake as you. It developed
 after a while, it wasn't there originally.
