[RBW] FS: Seagull Trail Breaker bag for Wald 137 Front Basket

[Jared Volpe]

Great bag. Barely used. Basically new. Not available anymore as Seagull 
went out of business. 

Side wings wrap over the basket to hold your bag in place, so you can hit 
the trail knowing your bag’s going to stay in place. 
No need for a cargo net and no more rattling on uneven terrain!  

It comes with the detachable shoulder strap. 

Asking $140.

[RBW] Bike with Riv-like geometry for kids - gravel

[Jared Volpe]

Hey all,

I’m looking for a new bike for our daughter. Truth told most of our miles are 
around the city but we take to gravel now and again. She doesn’t want a 
mountain bike. Something step through and more upright like a Clem or a Chev 
are interesting but I don’t want to spend that much because she’ll grow out of 
it. 

She is tall for her age and like me, has long legs. She is 60” and (yes we 
measured it) her PBH is 30”. 

Any suggestions?

Hey there. I'm selling my Sackville SlickerSack. If you have the Nitto 
Platrack and have been wondering what to do with it, you should buy this 
bag. It is pretty amazing. Plus it has been discontinued by Riv and they 
don't come up for sale often... so here is your chance to get one in 
excellent condition. 

You can read more about the bag and see pics here: 
https://thirtydayson2wheels.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/a-little-bit-about-the-gear-and-my-sackville-slickersack-review/

Asking $165. Cash preferred. I'd rather a local purchase but will consider 
shipping and other payments methods. 

I was going to do the Andy Schmidt modification 

 
and add turn clasps to the bottom of the bag to replace of the regular 
snaps, which makes it easier to attach the bag to the rack. I have the 
parts somewhere if you are interested and I'll throw them in. I talked with 
Narian's 
in Berkeley  and 
they could totally do it on the cheap.

DM me if you are interested. 

Happy New Year!

are handy with a needle and thread, this is easily fixable. Asking 130. I'd

Looks like I might be going to Sacramento for a repair.  Do you know of any 
painters or powder coaters there?

[RBW] bombadil downtube shifter boss broken

[Jared Volpe]

hi. was attempting to adjust my downtube cable stop because it wasn't lined up 
with the cable. didn't feel like I was using too much pressure but obviously 
was because the shifter boss snapped off. I'd like to get this fixed on the 
quick as I'm gearing up for a paint job. I guess it is better now than after. 
any Bay Area (east bay) recommendations? I'm assuming this is something that I 
wouldn't bring the bike to walnut creek for. thanks for your input!

Thanks for all your input on this. Still trying to figure out what to do. What 
are the general differences between powder coating and painting? durability and 
longevity? matte finish versus glossy or clearcoat? can I paint the lugs if I 
powder coat? I'm new at this so any info is very helpful!

[RBW] WTB (because I want to try) Albatross bar or cockpit for new to me Bombadil

[Jared Volpe]

Yup, I'm the proud owner of a 64cm green double top tube Bombadil. Pictures 
to come for the curious. But in the meantime I'm looking for a 
used Albatross bar or full cockpit. Currently has the Surly/Nitto 1x1 bar 
with the SunRace thumb shifters and Shimano MTB brake levers. Anyone 
looking to lighten their load?

[RBW] Re: Beautiful 68cm Rivendell Bombadil

[Jared Volpe]

Hi Amit,

Love the pics.  I'm taking delivery on my first (used) Riv.  64cm Bombadil. 
 I'd love to talk about how you set it up for different situations, etc. 
 I'm particularly interested in your cockpit setups, why and when.  Also 
noticed that your Twitter says you are a 'starter and a hustler.' What are 
you working on? I'm in the Bay Area working on a startup called PlayerPro.  

Best,

Jared

[RBW] Beater Crankset Broken... Saving for Rivendell... Help?

[Jared Volpe]

 

Hi All,

The crankset on my beater broke.  Does anybody in Oakland or Berkeley have 
a crankset they would like to give me or trade for a coffee?  I tried to 
attach a photo of what I have but Google isn't having it today.  I'll try 
to update after I successfully post. If you have something and you want me 
to send pictures, let me know. 

I'm tall, so is the vintage Fuji frame.  If one of you has a beater 
crankset taking space in your parts box that'll keep me from taking $100 
out of my Rivendell savings fund I'll be grateful!  

Thanks!

Jared

Very funny!  FYI, I'm looking for a beater crankset. Something taking up 
space that you could bring yourself to get rid of for nothing or next to 
nothing. Not a multi-thousand dollar bike.  ;)

Re: [RBW] WTB used Riv

[Jared Volpe]

I need no smaller than 64.  My PBH is 95-96.  Keven sized me and 64 is what I'm 
looking for. I'm not following you though.  What do you mean by 'needs no 
smaller than 64, and wants a new one.

 A bit less than that, but I'm looking for the buyer who needs no

 viewed that way.

[RBW] Re: My Quickbeam

[Jared Volpe]

Thinking of picking up a Qbeam.  Want a bike that I can use to
commute, shop, S24s.  Can a Qbeam cover it in your experience/opinion?

 Atlantis - Rambouillet - Qbeam

 I don't know why but the Qbeam is my favorite.  Over the last few years it 
 has gotten 90% of the miles.  It is my trainer, commuter and all around ride. 
  It has had a Shimano generater hub on it for at least 5 year and it is still 
 going strong.  Other then that it is a standard QB build.  I am even thinking 
 about getting a Simple One for commuting and a set the QB up for 
 randoneurring.

 The more you ride it the more you will like it.

  Subject: [RBW] My Quickbeam

  Well I had a great ride and think I'm lovin it.  I decided to go cheap so 
  built the wheels from some 10 year old rims that had been hanging on the 
  wall.  An old stock set from my Giant OCR Tour bike.  I built up 36 hole 
  wheels for it back then.
  So I put the shimano dyno instead of Schmidt and cyo-s instead of Edelux - 
  700/38 Bontrager wire bead tires (what 24 bucks a piece). Standard brooks 
  saddle .. Anyway..I don't notice anything being cheap except in my pocket 
  book.
  Oh ya 60 dollar bottom bracket.

  After several hundred miles it still makes me smile.

[RBW] Re: WTB: 64cm skinny tire + fenders roadbike

[Jared Volpe]

Ryan,

Thanks for the inspiration.  I'm still looking for someone who is
looking to shed a 64 SH, 62 Hunq, 64 Bomba, or 67 AHH.  If I don't
find one soon I'm going to break down and buy a 64cm Surly LHT but it
will likely be too small.  I hope someone will save me from this
fate!

I'm 95-96cm in the PBH. Comfortable with a seat height of 83 - 84cm.

I'm looking to do some commuting and short ( 1 week) tours.  Fire
roads, back roads, etc.  Seems like a lot of Rivs would fit the bill.

According to Keven@Riv the following frames would work:
64cm Sam Hillborne
62cm Hunqapillar
64cm Bombadil
67cm AHH

Do you have a Riv you want to sell?  Drop me a line if so.

Jared

 Hi everyone. I had some great offers but someone responded from a few
 blocks away with a Rivendell Rambouillet that wasn't getting much attention
 due to his amazing collection of great bikes (he rides his Bleriot mostly).
 It was way more than what I was looking for but I couldn't pass it up. Once
 the deal goes through and I move some parts over I'll post pics.

 If anyone is looking to buy a bike I highly recommend a post to this group.
 There are some amazing bikes not being ridden enough in here!

 Thanks again,

[RBW] Re: Anyone Regret Selling a Bike?

[Jared Volpe]

For any of you on the fence about selling your Riv and want to know it
would go to a good home, drop me a line.

If I don't find a used Riv soon, I'm going to break down and buy a
64cm Surly LHT when they hit the market.

I'm 95-96cm in the PBH. Comfortable with a seat height of 83 - 84cm.

I'm looking to do some commuting and short ( 1 week) tours.  Fire
roads, back roads, etc.  Seems like a lot of Rivs would fit the bill.

According to Keven@Riv the following frames would work:

64cm Sam Hillborne
62cm Hunqapillar
64cm Bombadil
67cm AHH
66cm Atlantis
66cm Rambouillet

There should be no regrets selling your Riv to a good home! You can
even have first right of refusal!

Jared

PS I'm in Berkeley, CA.  You can even have visitation rights if you
are local!

 Hey Folks,

 I am contemplating selling my Quickbeam I recently purchased from John on
 the Forum.  It is in great condition and has barely been ridden.  I am
 thinking about selling it because I only rode it a few times, don't see
 riding it much for a while, and could use the cash.  I get my riding time
 in mostly commuting and what I use my Sam for.  The regret part I think
 about is will I in a few years change my cycling routine and have a need
 for the Quickbeam.  I don't know, tough call.

 The main I posted this is wondering if anyone in the group regretted
 selling a bike.
